Chhath Festival Celebrated In Kathmandu, Nepal

A Hindu devotee offers prayers to the setting sun on the occasion of the Chhath festival in Kathmandu, Nepal, on October 27, 2025. The Chhath festival is dedicated to the Sun God, with devotees making offerings to both the setting and rising sun to express gratitude and seek blessings for prosperity and well-being. Chhath is an ancient Indo-Nepalese Hindu festival, native to eastern India and southern Nepal. It is celebrated especially in the Indian states of Bihar, Jharkhand, and Eastern Uttar Pradesh, as well as in Nepal's Koshi, Gandaki, Bagmati, Lumbini, and Madhesh provinces, where rituals are performed along rivers and ponds over four days of fasting, holy bathing, and prayer.
