a girl celebrating fifth day of Tihar - Bhai tika. Tihar is one of the most important hindu festivals in Nepal.


On the fifth day of Tihar (one of the most important hindu festivals in Nepal), sisters put colourful tikas on brothers' foreheads, and then on the foreheads of younger sisters too. Sisters offer sweets to their brothers, and brothers give their sisters money in return. The celebration is called Bhai tika. Bhai means "brother" in Nepali language.
