Stumbling onto a local festival may prove to be the highlight of your travels in Nepal (and given the sheer number of them, you'd be unlucky not to). Though most are religious in nature, merrymaking, not solemnity, is the order of the day, and onlookers are always welcome. However, some celebrations, while public, are also personal: don't photograph worshippers without asking permission.

Music and dance are also integral parts of the culture - so much so that they can only be briefly introduced here
