In the distance lie the majestic Himalayas and down below are the villages, monasteries, temples, lakes and jungles, a true bird’s eye view and a fascinating one at that.

Held in sheer respect of Lord Krishna the well known epic tero of vagbad Geeta and Nepal’s favorite abatar of Bishnu  Holi joyously  celebrates the death of the death of the notorious demoness called Holika . This wicked woman , supposed to be  indestructible  to fire attempted numerous times to kill her own nephew who was an ardent devotee of Krishna .

The first day of Holi starts with the raising of the chir pole about the house of noon in front of the Kunari House in basnbtpur .   This represents the particular tree fringed with multinaughty youth  Krishna hung clothes of the beautiful milk maidens when  he caught them all bathing naked in the River yamun . The eight meter bamboo pole is topped with three tiers fringed with multi color stripes of cloth . The full moon day falls to be the heaviest with nomadic bands of musicians playing the roads singing love  songs and hurling fistful of vermillion concentrate . The two poulur lyrics newa juveniles go singing include holiyaa melaa tanchaayaa laa lyaase ? and jhyaale chongu tukan maa wo he lyaase jita maah this obviously progresses in intercity until the lowering of the chir pole late in the afternoon . once the traditional pole goes down the mad crowd scramble for the fringe bith of  cloth . Than men carry the heavy pole to Tundikhel parade ground where it is burned in a ceremonial manner , proudly commemorate the fiery death of Holi .  Playing with color now comes to an executive end though some  communities particularly Indian Hindus home  in Nepal called dhotiwals keep it up on a more self-effacing scale another day .
