Pashupatinath, Kathmandu, most important Hindu temple in Nepal
Let's go to the temple!
Monkeys are already there
with strange look on their faces
Bull is used to travel by Shiva
Nandi bull waits in front of the sliver doors
where only Hindu people may enter
although some are too sleepy
Great entrance decorations
and many pigeons in front of the temple.
Crowds of people come today
sitting on the river bank
to pay respect to a minister's wife
Climbing above the crowds
we have great view on the Pashupatinath temple
and get away from self-invited guides
Family and goverment people are near the funaral pyre
facing common people
while others are parting with their loved ones on the other side of the bridge
with people wathcing across the river
Caves in the river canion rocks
and kids bathing downstream, closes to the burial site
