In this April 30, 2017, photo, devotees fill the streets in the Rato Machindranath Chariot festival in Lalitpur, Nepal. Lines of followers pull on two thick ropes to move the massive chariot along the narrow roads of Patan. With no steering or brakes, men throw wooden blocks under the wheels to turn or stop it. The harvest festival, that centers on the chariot in the capital city Kathmandu, preludes the monsoon season in Nepal where majority of the population still depend on farming for livelihood.
