THE BEST PLACE TO CELEBRATE LAXMI PUJA & THE FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS – SHIVAPURI, NEPAL
Story by Snow Cat Travel
The Festival of Lights is one of the most dazzling of all Hindu festivals in Nepal.
The Laxmi Puja is an exceptional, auspicious part of this festival and widely celebrated throughout the Kathmandu Valley in particular.
One of the best places to witness this spectacular celebration that takes place on the evening of October 19th this year is from the Shivapuri Heights Cottages.
During the festival, all the houses in Kathmandu and the surrounding villages in the valley villages get decorated with oil lamps.
It’s a wonderful sight to witness the whole valley looking like a sparkling diamond — a pretty big diamond!
Nestled in the serene Shivapuri Hills in the Kathmandu Valley, there are great panoramic views across Kathmandu and the entire valley, making this the perfect location to witness the festival and the Laxmi Puja lights.
Shivapuri Heights Cottage is arranging a special evening time package including dinner for people wanting to come up and see the Laxmi Puja Lights from their terrace and experience the Puja that they’ll be doing here too.
Just make sure you get here before dark!
Even better, why not spend the night here in one of the cozy, atmospheric cottage rooms?
