Pigeon Folklore in Kathmandu

Recently I went on a food tour in Kathmandu, and our guides took us to Seto Machindranath Temple where people like to feed the pigeons -- for a very special reason. According to our guides, there is pigeon folklore in Kathmandu and in other areas of Nepal. People feed the pigeons to gather them into a group and then run through them to make them fly. It's believed the energy from their wings flapping as they fly away transfers energy to the people below. 🐦 Watch with the sound on! 🎙🎚 🌎 🌎 🌎 #nepaltravel #visitnepal2020 #HTM2019 #nepal🇳🇵#travelnepal #travelnepal🇳🇵
