Nevarish city
Around Durbar Square is the "ideal city" Newari. The city consists of communicating with each other square yards, to go through that much more fun than a maze of narrow dirty streets with garbage dumps. In the center of each courtyard, usually 100 x 100 m, is the Buddhist stupa and small temple. Around - a miniature sculptures, statues or mini-temples. The yard is surrounded by a continuous wall, three and sometimes four-story buildings that look like a European. The windows are often decorated with carvings nevarish, roofs are a specific form. On one side of the yard - an Indian temple, guarded by a pair of lions. Inside homes is usually wooden staircase and entrance galleries with a small room, densely populated by people. The municipality often collected in the yard where children play, walk dogs, and discuss world problems elderly. Through the arch, or cross-cutting doorways can go to the next yard. Every household is unique, and you can watch every move of the court in the yard.Water supply in nevarish city and remained at the 17th century. Often you can find the sacred pools Narayana and stone baths, separate - men, separately - for women, which come as laundry. Usually bathed in clothes.
Elsewhere in Kathmandu freestanding temples, large and small, old and new, decorated with carvings nevarish or color photos. Passing by always around the temples in a clockwise direction, making ritual bows and jingle bells in (sometimes this is a huge bell with the ringing of the entire city. At first we thought that the ringing calls to any ceremony, and then realized that this call is often bystanders, skirting around the temple or shrine. Often, we beat ourselves in the bell)
Holidays in Kathmandu all the time, all the time to the various temples fit the procession. We found the holiday worship dogs. In the morning the children came dressed with a golden tray and began running after some flea-filled mongrel to make her offerings.
Before major holidays, the city clean. Several times we suddenly discovered that during the night disappeared slop pile and through streets hung colorful flags.
It is interesting to observe how huge demonstration, nesushaya poles and banners, shouting and dancing, suddenly squeezing into the narrow passage between a small temple and the wall to get around the temple on the left side.
