There are more than 60 ethnic group in Nepal , so we have more than nine new years days in a year.Among them the primary one is celebrated on the first month called “Baisakh” of the Bikram sambat Nepali calendar and falls in mid April on International Calender.
It’s a holiday in Nepal ,so we plan for some new exciting events such as Get-together with friends, family and relatives and have fun. We start celebrating New year from New year's eve, we usually stay Upto 12 AM in morning to welcome a new day with a bliss. In home we cook or bring some foods we love to eat and enjoy with family. Also we go outside in hotels-restaurants for dinner launch. Sometime with friends circle,sometimes family members we plan to visit some places , Parks across the country are full of celebrations with picnic and some programs. Some schools, colleges and offices plan for new year cultural program to start a fresh year with great enthusiasm.
In Kathmandu the center of attraction for the new year is Thamel. Where we go for live music have some beverage items and we dance and take some foods. People exchange gifts and greeting cards. We have many more places near Kathmandu valley to go for hiking picnics.The places are like : Chandragiri, Namo Buddha, Pashupati Nath , White Gumba, Kalinchowck, Pokhara, Sauraha Chitwan, Kakani, Chitlang etc.
People have some resolution on the new year. Some people commit to leave the bad habits and starts new habits and routines. Like giving up drink alcohol. And start go for walk every morning.
