WOMEN'S FESTIVAL & BOUDHA STUPS, 9.12.18

I apologize in advance, this is almost entirely photographs with a tiny bit of text.  




All over the city are these shop that do
amazingly detailed religious paintings. 






The Stupa is surrounded by shops, restaurants, and hotels. 

This place teaches the detailed
paintings, I guess to westerners. 


























The drop off here is 10 to 12' and
not a railing in sight. 

Partly built, abandon and used as a play ground. 

A guy just along the street. 






















Painting the forehead. 











Ghat is a riverside place where the bodies are burned. 



A religious head shaving. 







A family praying for and readying a body for burial. 













I love this girls smile. 





A priest from one of the temples, also a
close fried of my guide Amit. He has
good English and we had a great talk
about religion and Light. 



Amit & his close friend. 

My favorite photo since being in Nepal. 


This man is in his 80's walking with his granddaughter, he came up and
wanted to know where I was from and how long I was visiting for.
