Ropai, Bhaktapur

An elderly woman wearing Haku Patasi from Bhaktapur is planting rice (Ropai) in the month of Asar (3rd month in the Nepali Calendar) at Changunarayan Municipality, Bhaktapur, Nepal.

The 15th of Asar (3rd month in the Nepali Calendar) is celebrated as National Paddy Day (Dhan Diwas) in Nepal. This tradition of marking Asar 15 as Dhan Diwas has been in practice since 2005 after receiving recognition from the Ministry of Agriculture, Nepal.
