Tharu Community and Their Unique ethnic culture
The Tharu people are one of the unique communities in Nepal. Their unique identity can be seen in their unique cultural reflection. They have their mother tongue, and these Tharu people are very humble and kind and usually have a doer-type mentality. These people are very action-oriented, energetic, and decisive. These people have lots of land in the Terai region, and farming is their main profession, but nowadays, as tourism has developed, young Tharu youth are focusing on promoting this tourism. But the old ancestors of the Tharu people are very angry and moody, and even in some situations, they can show very cruel behavior. So, don't try to mess with these old Tharu people during visits. In Tharu communities, wearing Tharu dresses and dancing to their local song is their main attraction to attract tourists. Almost all Tharu people's houses are built using local methods with their own local design.
