Since 1998, the Street festival has started in Lakeside on the occasion of English New Year. At that time, there were no tourists at the lakeside. As it was the off-season, the hotel-restaurant had to be closed and the staff had to be given leave till season. As it gets colder and Christmas is enjoyed in the country, the tourists in Pokhara used to leave here along with December. At that time, the traveling culture of Nepalese was not yet developed. Since 1999, regular festivals have been held to attract tourists to Pokhara. Street festival's 26th edition has been success recently. Today, the festival has become an introduction to Pokhara. And in this video we talked about it starting history, its success and many on.
सन् १९९८ देखि लेकसाइडमा अंग्रेजी नयाँ वर्षको अवसर पारेर फेस्टिबल सुरु गरिएको थियो । त्योबेलामा लेकसाइडमा पर्यटक नै हुन्थेनन् । अफसिजन भएकाले होटल-रेष्टुरेन्ट बन्द नै गरेर स्टाफहरुलाई बिदा दिनुपर्ने अवस्था हुन्थ्यो । चिसो बढ्ने र स्वदेशमा क्रिस्मसको रमाइलो हुने भएकाले डिसेम्बरसँगै पोखरामा भएका पर्यटक पनि यहाँबाट बिदा हुन्थे । त्यतिबेला नेपालीको घुम्ने कल्चर विकास भइसकेको थिएन । पर्यटकलाई पोखरामै अडाउन सन् १९९९ देखि नियमित फेस्टिबल हुन थाल्यो । सन् १९९८ को मिनी फेस्टिबललाई छोडेर यो फेस्टिबल २६ औं संस्करण भइसकेको छ । आजको दिनमा आइपुग्दा फेस्टिबल पोखराको परिचय बनेको छ । यस भिडियोमा हामी यसको सुरुवाती इतिहास, यसको सफलता र अन्य विविधि विषयमा कुरा गरेका छौं ।
