Nepal Army Holds Grand Rehearsal For Phulpati Badhain, Part Of Hindu Festival- Dashain
Nepali Army personnel fire cannons during the full-dress grand rehearsal of the Phulpati Badhain ceremony in Kathmandu, Nepal, on September 26, 2025. ''Phulpati,'' the seventh day of the fortnightly festival of Dashain, is observed with the arrival of a palanquin at Basantapur Durbar Square's Dashain Ghar from Gorkha Durbar. Both the former royal palaces of the Himalayan nation honor the age-old tradition that started about a century ago. Phulpati, an assortment of flowers, leaves, and fruits of different plants, is considered auspicious and is anointed at Dashain Ghar on the seventh day of the fortnightly festival of Dashain.
