The Hindu society observes the birthday of lord Krishna with special reverence. Krishna Janmastami or Moharatri marks the birth of Krishna, the eighth child of Basudev and his wife Devaki. Considered the eighth incarnation of lord Vishnu, Krishna is the most important protagonist of the epic Mahabharat, which is also the longest poem ever written. On Krishna Janmastami, Hindu devotees visit Krishna temples to offer prayers. Some even observe fasting on the day. Thousands of devotees gather at the Krishna Mandir of Patan Durbar Square for prayers and to celebrate the festival.
