Bhaktapur is in many ways the most medieval of the three major cities in the Kathmandu Valley. Despite recent development, the city still retains a distinctly timeless air, with much of its glorious architecture dating from the end of the 17th century.
Sometimes it's best to take a break from temples and sit back
and watch the unchanging rituals of daily life: the laying out
of grain to dry in the sun, families collecting water or washing
under communal taps, children playing simple games, dyed yarns
flapping in the breeze or potters at work throwing clay.

During
the day mostly elderly men meet under an open verandah to chat,
play cards or simply observe life in the street.
