Rice is one of the most important elements in Nepalese daily life. Every year during the month of Ashad (mid-June to mid-July), farmers all over Nepal celebrate the planting of rice, also known as ropain.
Within Kathmandu valley and on the city outskirts, the entire Newar community participates in this tradition.
