Phulpati Celebration In Nepal As Part Of Dashain Festival
A Nepal Army helicopter showers flower petals while observing the Phulpati procession in Kathmandu, Nepal, on September 29, 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 starts 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.
