Road map Nepal
The bus from Raxaul (Indian border) to Kathmandu followed a long and winding road that partly consisted of stretches of mere pebbles and boulders. Over the mountains and alongside steep canyons, we reached Kathmandu, at last. It turned out to be a wonderful place, overcrowded with temples, dogs and..... hippies.
