Pashupatinath Temple & Durbar Square

18th April 2003
 
We went to Pashupatinath temple where people are cremated.  A solemn but interesting place to visit.  There where also some scary looking Hindi Priest there to add to the atmosphere. 
 
Durbar Square (next page) however, is different matter.  Like most tourist sights there's lots of people there, mostly hawkers which, at first glace appears to out number the tourist.  Anyway, Durbar square is an interesting place to check out with it's unique architecture, it is also a world heritage site that contains the palaces of Malla and Shah kings.  Didn't have a guide that day, so can't tell you more - even if I remembered the details.
