| Pashupatinath and the cremations |
|
|
Pashupatinath is he most sacred Hindu temple in Nepal, and it is also one of the most important for all the Hindu around the world; also the members of the Nepali Royal Family are cremated here.
Every day of the year, from dawn to dusk, the pyres burn, burning the bodyes of the dead, whose ashes are thrown in the Bagmati, the sacred river which joins the sacred Indian Gange.
A unique experience, which merge life and death, as complementary in human being lives.
