The cow festival of
the dead of the previous year, and the annual carnival.
The first
day of the waning fortnight Gunlaga is the time for a major festival
commemorating those who have died in Bhaktapur during the previous year.
The
festival includes two elements in an intimate mixture, commemorations of
the
death and carnivals. The day’s event and the inaugural procession of the
previous afternoon introduce a period of related activities lasting
until the
eighth day of the fortnight
