The Bead Market is in the central area of Kathmandu and kind of tough to visit as the traffic can be really bad in that area of town. But its worth seeing the riot of colour and to watch the necklaces be made or altered right there in front of you. Lots and lots of choices, especially if you like green, red and gold! Looks Christmas-y to me, but the colours are a symbol of martial status here in Nepal. Enjoy!

30 Seconds: Boudha Stupa
I’m breaking over a month’s blogging silence with a new feature that I hope will help me share some of the sights and impression of Nepal so much better and improve my video skills as well: a short 30-second film on a topic. I’m hoping to do this regularly, at least twice a month. Here we go…starting with the fascinating Boudhnath Stupa in Kathmandu. Enjoy! (and feedback welcome!)
