Hey Pawan Dai,

Thanks for following my posts.
I’m willing to go anywhere for momo, but you got to promise me that you will serve it before midnight

There was a photographer who took pictures from the bottom with a telephoto zoom, and his assistant at the top who guided people towards the camera. So the “no camera policy” might have to do something with the revenues from that photo service. Perhaps you are correct about the Army headquarters too.

And, thanks again for appreciating my tip कतै तपाईंको Combo नेपाल ट्रिप जाने प्लान त छैन ?

nice piece…this and all others….after having gone thru most of them, i feel like i took a trip back home….brings back a lot of memories…i dont understand the policy of no camera on top of dharahara… or may be i do….it can be the nearby army headquarters….just a guess….

i can understand u being frustrated ….mobility is bound to be a major issue, and so is informing your parents about your every move…thanks for the tip

hope to see you in BR one of these days….drop by one weekend….i promiss i will serve momos.

I hope people stop taking Nepal for granted, and try to explore Nepal, talking pictures of natural as well as archeological heritages. So that people get used to ‘Even Nepali take pictures in Nepal’. After that you and I won’t have any problem

Me too, haven’t been to Ghandruk. I lived in Pokhara for 6 years, but never thought about it! It is true that we take our natural beauty for granted. I plan to visit next time I am in Nepal.

I have never tried to photograph in KTM streets. After reading your post, I will never too:)
