Nepalese Culture

Culture is a social behavior which may vary in different places or community. This social behavior is created by people themselves and follows as their tradition. Culture is the identity of a person,society or country. Some cultures are good whereas some are bad. A culture which is observed in a place may not acceptable in another place. We have our own cultures in nepal. 
 
Greeting: Nepalese people use the word "Namaskar"to greet the elderly people and "Namaste" to the colleagues and younger people. We use the body gesture with this word two palms are joined together, keep upright and put them on chest or in front of face. To respond it, the another persons also do the same. We normally do not prefer physical contact while greeting. 

Clothes: As a casual wear, men wear shirt or T-shirt and pants, and women wear sari and blouse. Daura-Suruwal, coat and nepali cap is theasy national costume of our country. People are not generally supposed to expose much body part in nepal. 

Food and drink: Plain rice, lentil gravy, mixed vegetable curry, salad are nepali common food. Nepali people normally eat four times a day. In the morning we have a light breakfast. Some hour after breakfast, we have our lunch which is big one. In the afternoon we have another light snacks, and in the evening we have a heavy supper. We use our hand to eat food, and we are not supposed to use our left hand to eat food.

The people of differen castes and places have their own cultures regarding greeting, wearing clothes and food . Now a days we can see some changes in these cultures because of the alien cultures influence. If we want to keep our own identity alive, we must follow our cultures. Our cultures are our precious heritage.
