Symbols
Sushant will teach you about traditional Nepali symbols. What is the name of the mountain on the door?
Hi my name is Sushant. I read in class 4 at Nagarjuna Acadamy. This is a door, there are 8 pictures. These two pictures are of the biggest mountain of the world, it is Mt Everest. It is found in Nepal. This is a picture of the national bird of Nepal it is Lophophorus. This is a picture of the national flower of Nepal it is Rhododendron. This is a man carrying goods and going to sell it in the market. This is a woman farming. These are both yams, when we keep it on our door, when we are going out for a journey, it is beleived that our journey will be safe. Bye bye!
The national flower of Nepal, Rhododendron, is bright red and found in places all over the world, maybe even where you live. The national bird has the scientific name ‘Lophophorus’ but you can call it a ‘Danphe’ for short. It is very colorful with many shades of blue and green.
