Nepal, Central Region, Bagmati Zone, Dhimen Pyakhan: Newars celebrated every significant moment with great vigour. Whenever there is something to celebrate and enjoy, they gather and start dancing to the beats of the traditional drum, “Dhimen”. “Dhimen” beats are loud and make people jump to their feet. If interested, we request our guests to join in the dance. One has the freedom of moving in anyway with the beats. With some alcohol, the joy of the dance is enhanced for sure.
