Shikali Jatra


"Nepalese Hindu devotees dressed as gods and goddesses prepare to participate in festvities at The Shikali Temple in the village of Khokana on the outskirts of Kathmandu on October 2, 2011, during celebrations for The Shikali Jatra festival. Local villagers, who normally do not celebrate the country's most famous festival of Dashain or Dushera, celebrate the Shikali Jatra each year."

Thank you Razeno.

I found the picture in a local online paper as credited but I also expect it was circulated among major presses across the globe.

You keep blogging too.

Best wishes,
Ridwan
