Wow. What a day. Began with a solid buffet breakfast at the hotel and then we were off to Pashupathinath temple, one of Hinduisms’s most sacred ancient temples on the outskirts of the city.
That was followed by Boudhnath, one of the largest Buddhist stupas in the center of the city, where we also enjoyed an amazing lunch and a tour of an art gallery and the practice of thangka painting.
Then it was off to the neighboring town of Patan’s Durbar Square, the site of ancient temples with scriptures dating back to 182 AD.
And back to the hotel for New Year’s Eve celebrations. Whew!
