Tour Overview

This day is also observed as Dussehra by the Nepalese. This is one of the famous festivals when the effigy of Lord Ravana is burnt on the streets of Darjeeling. This symbolizes destruction of evil. The Nepali people on this day make a offering of a huge quantity of meat to Ma Durga which they later consume  This will be a festival or rather a carnival unlike any other you may have experienced ever. Celebrated mainly during the winter month of October & November, this is a 10-day carnival that is hosted in the main town of Darjeeling & Sikkim . The festival was initiated by the youth of Darjeeling as a part of Darjeeling’s initiative to bring in throngs of tourism. The main purpose of this carnival was to get over the violent period of the 80s. It is all about rock music performed by the locals of Darjeeling in Bengali, Nepali, and English. It truly is a one-of-a-kind experience and also includes exciting activities like poetry reading sessions, photography exhibitions, painting and so much more.
