On our four year anniversary we went to see heavens eyes - the holiest Buddhist site in Kathmandu valley. This enomous Stupa gathers a constant flow of pilgrims and tourists.
Prayer wheels
Sacrificial flowers
A "funny" fact is that it is not allowed to walk counterclockwise around the Stupa (we ended up walking couple of extra rounds due to this).
Monastry
There is also many Buddhist monastries around the site. We visited a few, at one witnessing a most idyllic view of two monks playing with pet-bunnies in the monastrygarden. Wonderful images printed in our minds and peaceful the atmosphere felt in their silent presence.
