Description
Devotees pull a chariot during a procession on the third day of the "Seto Machindranath" festival honouring Nepal's patron deity in Kathmandu. The god is worshipped by both Hindus and Buddhists of the indigenous Newar community of Kathmandu. It takes days to build the metres-long wooden chariot and thick ropes are attached to it to pull the chariot into the old courtyards of Kathmandu. Locals pray to the god for long life and prosperity.
