Hindu and Buddhist devotees in Lalitpur, Nepal, are preparing to pull the chariot of Lord Rato Machhindranath on May 11, 2024. Known as Nepal's ''Red God,'' Rato Machhindranath is the lord of rain and harvest. He is being honored with a 32-foot-tall chariot that will be paraded around the city for weeks. The chariot procession, also known as ''Bunga Dugh'' in Newari, which translates to the God of Rain and Harvest, is the longest festival in Nepal. Its duration varies, depending largely on astronomical considerations. The Newar community constructs the towering chariot annually, using wooden beams and precise adjustments to the shrine without the use of a single nail. It takes the community about a week to build the chariot, which is then given a final touch-up with decorations before Lord Machhindranath is enshrined in it.
