  • Kaal Bhairav of Kathmandu Darbar Square

    Recent entries are mostly about religious sites and temples. Didn’t plan this. Walking around in Kathmandu (the city and the Valley), generally speaking, means stumbling upon a lot of statues quite frequently.

  • Changunarayan

    19 July- Can’t remember the last time I was here but it doesn’t look very different. The temple, built several centuries ago over a small hilltop in Bhaktapur district and recently renovated, looked new. Read the history of Changu Narayan here

  • Kids of Rukum: fishing, diving, clashing, and smiling

    >>This post contains 46 photos. This a sequel to the previous post titled People and Faces from Rukum’s Headquarter Musikot [RIP, Steve Jobs].

  • No Sin Was Committed While Taking This Photo #Guhyeshwari

    I got very angry when I saw this notice pasted on the walls of Guhyeshwari temple complex today afternoon. My blood is still boiling- six hours after I first saw this. I felt like giving a tight slap- saale ko galai ma- on the cheek of this guy who ordered for this to be pasted…

  • Beloved Bamboos of Budha Subba in Bijaypur (Dharan)

    I first visited Dharan in 2001. I was on my way to Kimathanka, the remote and smallest village of Nepal by population bordering China. I stopped for a few days in Biratnagar, booked my air ticket to Tumlingtaar, and went to explore nearby towns of eastern Nepal. Dharan, Itahari and Birtamod. Back then my primary…
