Falgun

Falgun (Bengali: ফাল্গুন, Nepali: फाल्गुन) is the eleventh month in the Nepali and Bangla calendars and the Vikram Samvat. It marks the arrival of spring, the sixth and final season in Nepal and Bangladesh. The first of Falgun usually falls on 13 February of the Gregorian Calendar. The first day of Falgun is marked with colourful celebration of the advent of spring called Holi, known locally as Fagu (फागु). Traditionally, women wear yellow saris to celebrate this day.
