Bhaktapur

We went to Bhaktapur yesterday, an ancient city 16 kilometres from Kathmandu. We decided to take a local bus instead of a taxi to save some money. Of course the driver ripped us off. On the way to Bhaktapur we had to pay 50 rupees each (which is still nothing) and on the way back it was only 16 rupees. Anyway, here are some pics of a political demonstration and of Bhaktapur, where people live the old fashioned life. When we sat down for lunch we watched an old woman hanging up laundry on the rooftop of her house.
