CW: Photo GeoLocation Project
While resting in Kathmandu for Christmas in December 2007, I decided it was time to go visit Durbar Square. On the way there I took a picture of a temple in a square in Bhedasing (भेडासिङ). When geolocating it, I found a Streetview from 2024 that gives an interesting parallax on the development of phone and power connections across 17 years.
