"Selfie with the stupa"

Boudha Stupa, the largest stupa in #Nepal, a Buddhist religious complex and UNESCO World Heritage Site in #Kathmandu, photographed during my latest visit.

All-seeing eyes of the Buddha, the Wisdom Eyes or simply Buddha's eyes on the golden spire of Boudhanath (the Boudha Stupa), the large stupa in Kathmandu. The eyes are said to represent the all-seeing wisdom of the Buddha, Buddha's all-seeing ability. They are painted on each of four sides of the tower, facing cardinal directions. #KathmanduValley

Took about 6000 photos in two days here. Also inspired to write a few words about the "Beautiful Chaos" that is Nepal. Will share that soon.

Good morning from Bhaktapur. We're heading west today in search of big mountains, and leaving behind the little treasures.

Goodnight from Bhaktapur and have a happy Dashain :)

I find the expression of religion in Nepal to be quite beautiful. It's very fluid and inviting of many expressions. Never rigid. They make room for everyone.

I am not a religious person, but I see beauty in the people of Nepal and their cultural fluidity.

Good morning from Nepal. Dashain is getting into full swing here. Lots of chickens and goats at the market. The entire town is out to make offerings to their gods. School bands are wandering the streets playing flutes and drums. It's just a little bit marvellous today.
