Hindu devotees from across Nepal and India among other countries thronged to various shrines of Hindu Lord Shiva as a part of 'Bol Bom',a holy pilgrimage ritual that is observed every year in the month of Shrawan.
The pilgrims usually bring water from Sundarijal and offer it to Lord Shiva at Pashupatinath temple.
During Bol Bom, most of the pilgrims walk barefoot in saffron robes to show their devotion to the deity.
It is believed that participating in Bol Bom rally grants the wishes of the devotees.
Here are some photos from the holy rally by Post photographer Angad Dhakal:
