The festival that I like most is independent day celebration. It is celebrated on 15th of October every year here in Nepal. During childhood when I was in school, the teachers used to give us chocolates on that very day and we used to feel very much happy. After providing chocolates and waving flag on school, the school was closed and we used to go to holiday and we used to go for a visit and family gathering. In that family gathering, the relatives and friends used to give me some kind of gifts and presents and from elders one we used to get blessing also according to our culture. Now I celebrate it by waving flag on the roof of my house and after that I particularly go for some kind of tour or family visit in the park or any other religious places. The celebration is celebrated by almost every ethnic group and linguistic people here in Nepal and it is celebrated according to the culture of particular country in abroad. The similarity is that every people of every country were playing flag during this day.

The festival that I like most is Independence Day celebration. It is celebrated on the 15th of October every year here in Nepal. During my childhood, when I was in school, the teachers used to give us chocolates on that very day, and we felt very happy. After receiving chocolates and waving flags at school, the school was closed, and we went on holiday for visits and family gatherings. At those family gatherings, relatives and friends would give me gifts and presents, and from the elders, we would receive blessings according to our culture. Now, I celebrate it by waving the flag on the roof of my house, and after that, I usually go on a tour or visit family in the park or any other religious places. The celebration is observed by almost every ethnic group and linguistic community here in Nepal, and it is celebrated according to the culture of each particular country abroad. The similarity is that people in every country wave flags on this day.
