Durbur Square Bhaktapur

Erotic Karma Sutra carvings on one of the temples... Also a common theme. I never knew Hinduism was such a sexualized religion...

View across Durbur Square. I just loved Bhaktapur! It was one of my favorite parts of Nepal. There are narrow cobblestone streets that wind between the red-brick houses and join a series of squares and courtyards that are full of temples, statues, cisterns, and wells. Quite quaint. Especially since the town is out in the middle of the valley completely surrounded by fields where most of the locals still live as farmers.

Take 1: Sitting on temple steps.

Take 2: Notice our local friend also sitting on the steps.

Take 3. Our guide was so accommodating with my camera.
