Bisket Jatra

BHAKTAPUR

by umeshsthapit Published on Sep 26, 2020

Bisket Jatra, Bhaktapur's weeklong festival marks the ancient solar New Year and is the only festival that does not follow the lunar-based Nepali calendar. Bhairav and Bhadrakali are then placed in large chariots (locally known as Rathas) and pulled through crowds of cheering onlookers. During the festival people replay a drama passed on over the centuries.
