Nepali Hindu and Buddhist devotees are watching the chariot procession of Lord Rato Machhindranath from rooftops in Lalitpur, Nepal, on May 11, 2024. Known as Nepal's ''Red God,'' Rato Machhindranath, the lord of rain and harvest, is being celebrated with a 32-foot-tall towering chariot that is set to tour around the city for weeks. The chariot procession of Rato Machhindranath, also known as ''Bunga Dugh'' in Newari, meaning the God of Rain and Harvest, is the longest festival in Nepal. Its duration extends for months and is largely dependent on astronomical calculations. The 32-foot towering chariot of Rato Machhindranath is constructed annually by the Newar community using wooden beams and intricate adjustments to the shrine sanctum, all without using a single nail. It takes the community about a week to build it, and it is given a final touch-up with decorations before Lord Machhindranath is enshrined in the chariot.
