Daily Life In Nepal- Town Painted In Red With Hanging Chilies

A child looks out of the window beside the garland of red chillies hung out in the air to dry in Khokana, Lalitpur, Nepal, on August 3, 2025. The ancient town of Khokana has the tradition of weaving the red chillies and hanging them out in the air to dry, which paints the town red. This practice is claimed to increase the longevity of the produce as well as preserve the seed for further cultivation. (Photo by Subaas Shrestha/NurPhoto)
