Kathmandu, Call
it magic, call it enchantment, call it a trick
of the light, sleight of hand, a celestial
conjuror's trick, call it what you will but
there is a real Kathmandu and a real Nepal
hidden behind the well-trodden snapshot country
that is gift wrapped by an anonymous machine and
handed out a half-day sightseeing at a time. The
hidden Nepal and the secret Kathmandu still
await discovery. And they are ours. Here is a
country agog with palace squares, towering
temples, and with memories of wild dreams. There
are cobbled stone streets that wind through
ancient bazaars and lead to a sanctified place
where a hundred priests on flying white horses
once alighted. There are Buddhistst Stupas
around which psychics and fourtune tellers
abound. There are dawn and dusk places where
witch doctors exorcize spirits and remedy all
ills.
There are living Goddesses whose smiles are a
benediction. There are reincarnate Lamas who
forsee the future with a roll of dice and
scriptural reference. There are walks that lead
the adventurous to legendary places where ogres
once lived, where Goddesses danced, and where
Gods were held ransom by tantric yogis.

trips information about kathmandu &
Pokhara.There are hidden gardens behind palaces
yet unseen and courtyards where miracles happen,
and a city the Buddha visited. There are

courtyards with intricate carvings of stone and

possessed by the Gods.
