Gathemangal Festival In Nepal

People are preparing to make the effigy of the demon deity Ghantakarna to immolate it, veering off the bad omens and warding off evil spirits in Bhaktapur, Nepal, on August 2, 2024. Falling on Trayodashi (third day) of the month of Shrawan (July/August), which is also known as Ghantakarna Chaturdasi, the festival is celebrated in memory of the mythical demon Ghantakarna's death.
