Some 5,000 university students participated in the “Color Festival,” held in a social complex by the Lake Hazar and threw powdered paint at each other.
The Color Festival is inspired by the traditional Hindu festival Holi, which usually takes place in March to mark the coming of spring. On this day, people throw powdered paint, known as “gulal” in Hindi or “rang” in Nepali, at each other.
The Color Fest started with the countdown of a DJ that took the stage for four hours, entertaining students.
