Nepal is observing a public holiday today on the auspicious
occasion of Makar Sankranti, also known as Maghi.
It is a festival which is celebrated to mark the shift of the Sun into the
zodiac constellation of Capricorn (called Makar in Nepali). It falls on the
very first day of the Nepali month Magh.
It is believed that with the arrival of this fiesta, the short
and chilling days of winter gradually turn into longer and warmer days, eventually
giving an invitation to spring. It is also reputed as the festival of harvest in
Nepal. The Sun is worshipped in the form of God on this day by the Hindu
devotees. They take a bath on the sacred rivers which are nearby the places
that they live in. The delicacies that are eaten are ghee, Chaakku, Teel ko laddu, tilauri and yam. So do not miss them out if
you are on a holiday in Nepal on 15th of January.
