The city of Bhaktapur
Next stop of the day: Bhaktapur, which lies 13km east of Kathmandu.
Mode of transport: local bus which was slow but good value for money and nice breeze leaning out of window.
It costs a whopping 15 USD to enter the old part of Bhaktapur. This price only exists for foreigners of course.
Hello cow!
Typical street view
Although I didn't think it was worth the price, it was nice to look around and experience daily life in the back streets, play hide and seek with some local boys who spoke surprisingly well English and drink a nice honey coffee while watching the stick dance parade pass by.
Lady next to me on the bus called Susma randomly told me: "don't be sad, be happy, reset your mind, thank you god thank you god". This was a bit strange.
Very interesting and workmanship on buildings incredible. Thanks !!! xxxx
