Description The heart of Kathmandu is the ancient Durbar (central)square crowded with palaces and temples, including the current incarnation of the Kasthamandap or "Wooden house" that gives the city its name. There are many so-called "holy man" around here but this particular "rasta" like man was my favourit of them all. Of course I had to donate something after taking this photo!

Kathmandu is a beautiful place - you just have to go there. During my stay there I didn't see anything like him though...
It is a very nice pic, I really feel nostalgic!

awesome,the durbar your speaking of is usually centralized around the tom of an ancient holy man, this is the case when regarding most cities in asia. check out some of my photos, particularly "Role Model"
