Nepal Day 4

Namaste... Here in Nepal saturday is a holiday.. and they start the week on sunday.. so only 1 off day per week...

We went out to the Pashupatinath temple.. so called the holiest temple in kathmandu.. Its a shiva temple and the ppl there do cremations by the bagmati river.. so we see them carrying dead bodies out n burn them.. then throw the ashes into the river.. (well, no river left, cos all black n clogged..) in belief that the ashes will flow to Delhi, a holier n better place to be..

Hopefully when it rains the river will run again.. i want clear sky..the air all full of dust n smoke, surprised that I din get some infection yet.. RAINNN.. gona try n do some rain dance on the roof tonight..hehe..

We took a 1 hour walk there.. we could take the bus, but the walk there was nice...
Its the first time i carry my tripod out.. just to get this:

We went up some hill on the way.. and some kampung road.. our tour guide do extra time, brought us there... There is this small huts that we saw, Bishal told us they are restaurants.. quite creative.. cos can sit there n watch the view..

As u can see, the sky is very foggy n cant reeli see the mountains.. It wont be the raining season till jun or july.. huhuhu.. so I probably wont get to take nice pictures of the mountains.. so sadd...

This is the bagmati river..

on the other side is where they cremate the bodies.. but I dun wana put it here la.. later they come n cari me ka..

Namaste... popi popi dont come and cari me.. but this place is very touristic 1.. so alot of ppl with camera bigger than mine, tripod longer than mine.. i malu to take out my tripod here la.. haha..

cos i have friends to take pics for me!
The compound is quite big, but non hindus cant enter the main temple.. so we just walk about..

There are some stairs to climb to the cafe and another temple...
but the cafe tak menarik 1 la.. i tot like got cakes or kuih or interesting food.. but the shops here all dark dark 1 cos save electric kot.. dats y my food fotos alot have to flash..

So thirsty.. there are ppl selling nanas at the road side.. i want to eat.. I din getto eat any roadside food yet..
panipuri.. I wantt!!
While waiting for bus back:
Rainn. pleasee rainn..
