Tibetan New Year, also known as Losar, is the most important festival according to the Tibetan calendar.
It is celebrated over a period of two weeks. The Losar ceremony dates back to the Tibetan, pre-Buddhist period. At that time, Tibetans held a spiritual ceremony every winter. During this ceremony, a large amount of incense was burned to appease the local spirits, gods and protectors. This religious festival later developed into an annual Buddhist festival. The Tibetan calendar consists of 12 lunar months and Losar begins on the first day of the first Tibetan month. The Losar festival is primarily characterized by music, dancing and conviviality.
