Events Detail

Vo'ye - Grand Newar Feast

Get your yearly dose of delicious Newar food that boasts over 18 different varieties of cuisines to celebrate the festival - the Kumari Jatra - festival of living Goddess. The tour starts from the Kumari temple at Kathmandu Durbar Square and followed by a grand feast with free flow of ‘aila & thwon’ - the local brew.

Indra Jatra is one of the biggest celebrations in Kathmandu. The Kumari makes her rare appearance in public, makes a tour on a two kilometer route in Kathmandu, and there are cultural dances, and always a grand feast. We have combined this epic event and a Grand Feast into a tour that we are calling the VO’YE (from the Newari word for feast). The Tour will start at the Kumari Temple with Sagun, khadas and will be guided by an expert on the Kumari. The Grand Feast will have over 20 different types of Newar specialities and there will be free flow aila and thyo as well.
