4 December 2025

Members of the Newa community, the aboriginals of the Kathmandu Valley, prepare to welcome the Yomari Punhi and Jyapu Day celebration parade, which starts in Kathmandu, Nepal, on December 4, 2025. A steaming hot delicacy shaped like a fig, filled with molasses and sesame seeds, commonly called Yomari in the Newa community, marks the start of the consumption of fresh-harvest rice from the full moon of Poush, the ninth month of the Nepali lunar calendar. The harvest festival, marked with fanfare by the Newa community of the Kathmandu Valley, gets its name from Yomari, the fresh-harvest rice sweetmeat. According to various beliefs, Suchandra and Krita, a married couple, first experimented with the fresh yield of rice from their field in present-day Panauti City in ancient times. The couple then distributed the new delicacy to the villagers, who liked it, and it was named Yomari, which in the Newa language means ''tasty bread.'' It is not only tasty but also helps one to keep warm in winter and helps to increase blood and sperm.
