4 December 2025

A member of the Newa community, the aboriginals of the Kathmandu Valley, is showered with flowers while taking part in the Yomari Punhi and Jyapu Day celebration parade 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 experiment with the fresh yield of rice from their field at present-day Panauti City in ancient times. The couple then distributes the new delicacy to the villagers, which is liked by all, and it is 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.

Nepali florists pluck marigolds from the field to sell them in the local market as demand soars with the arrival of the festival of Tihar, also known as Diwali, on October 19, 2025. Turned golden with the bloom of the ornamental flower ''Tagetes Erecta Linn,'' commonly called marigold, which has 50 species within the Tagetes, these particular slopes host about 5 species that are in high demand during the festival of light or flowers. The country produces about 2.5 million garlands during the festive season. In the past, domestic production accounts for 20 percent of the country's requirement, and the rest is imported, mainly from India. But in recent years, locally grown flowers make up around 90 percent of sales. Floriculture is done on 158 hectares of land, and around 44,000 people are directly and indirectly engaged in the sector. There are 800 commercial floriculturists in the country with a combined investment of NRs 6.5 billion.
