Level 1: My Nepal Pictures

Katmandu

Katmandu is the capital of Nepal. It is a very interesting city. There are lots of temples and markets and the people are very friendly. I stayed here for three days.

_____________________

The temples in Katmandu are ancient, they were built between the 13th and 17th centuries. The architecture is different than modern buildings.

_________________________________________________

Many of the markets in Katmandu are on the street. You can buy fruit, vegetables, rugs, clothes, masks, wooden statues

. The markets are always crowded and busy.

Cars, motorcycles and bicycles drive right through the marketplace so you have to be careful where you walk. _______________________________

There are a lot of monkeys in Katmandu.

The city of Katmandu is not very big, but there is a lot to see. The only thing that I didn't like was the traffic and the pollution.

Bhaktipor

Bhaktipor is a small city about an hour from Katmandu. It is an ancient city, almost all the buildings are more than 200 years old. From Bhaktipor, you can see the Himalaya Mountains. It's a great place to take pictures or shop.

The Himalayas

The Himalayas are the highest mountains in the world. Mount Everest is the highest mountain and is in Nepal. The mountains are covered with snow for the entire year. They are very beautiful, especially in the morning and evening.

Patan

Patan is a city that is very close to Katmandu. It also has many ancient buildings. I ate lunch in a very old building with an interesting view of the main square.
