Nepal's Culture July 1962
Abstract:
The cultural achievement of the Nepalese people are displayed in the rich art and architecture which abound throughout the country. The culture reflects a mixture of the Buddhist Lamaism of the north and of the Hinduism of the south. Kathmandu alone contains some 350 Hindu temples – intricately carved and richly decorated. Musicians play at the entrance of the Hindu temple of the Lord Shiva in the Village of Gokarna, ten miles from Kathmandu. #Nepalese #Musician #HinduTemple #Singing #Gokarna
