Sujan Bagh Shrestha (30), who pierces his tongue for the third consecutive time, is escorted around the town after undergoing the ritual of the tongue-piercing festival in the medieval town, Nepal, on April 15, 2025. Locally called ''Jibro Chedne Jatra,'' this festival is observed annually on the second day of the Nepali New Year. The town, which used to be a separate state in the medieval age of Nepal, observes this festivity with grandeur. (Photo by Subaas Shrestha/NurPhoto)
