Tihar, the second biggest festival for Hindus after Dashain, was from 28th Oct to 1st Nov this year. Please click here to know more about the festival.
This year was Chhori’s first Tihar celebration so I wanted to make sure she had a great memory of the celebration.

Tihar is celebrated for five days and here are some photos from our celebration this year.


- Laxmi Puja and Gai (cow) Puja

- Goru Puja,Gobhardan Puja , Mha Puja and Nepal Sambat
As my parents are here this year, it was great to have a whole family celebrating Mha puja.

Chhori does Bhai tika to my nephew. It was so cute to see these little ones performing the ritual.

Hope everyone celebrating had great Tihar too.
Take care everyone,
