KATHMANDU: As the festive seasons of Dashain and Tihar approach, the markets are buzzing with the sale of kites and threads.

Colorful kites are prominently displayed in the shops across the capital, drawing the attention of many.

The sight of these kites is truly mesmerizing.

However, the joy of flying kites during Dashain seems to be fading.

In recent years, the vibrant gatherings of children and young adults soaring kites into the sky have diminished significantly.

The tradition of kite flying during the Dashain festival appears to be gradually disappearing among the younger generation.

The cultural practice that once brought families and friends together during this festive time is losing its charm, as fewer people participate in this enjoyable activity.

The decline in kite flying signifies a shift in the way festivals are celebrated, raising concerns about the preservation of such cherished traditions.
