Day 7 Photos

This is one of the beautiful sunrises I saw from the roof of the hotel.

This is the front of the Buddhist monastery that our hotel was next to.

This is the main entrance to the Stupa, which we walked through several times a day.

These are some kind of tractor thing that people drove around on the main roads. They move really slow and are really hard to turn, I would not recommend buying one.

This is what the School looked like before we started our work.



Every Youthlinc Team paints a mural to commemorate their trip.

And this is our team's mural, with our in country coordinator Nabin.

We painted all of classrooms in the lower building, this was the last wall we painted.

We also painted the fence that surrounded the school, which was no easy task, it took us pretty much the entire trip to get it finished.

This wall has all of the children's hands in yellow, blue and red and the members of our team in green.

Day 6 Photos

This was at the first site we visited, Durbar Square. It is a statue of King Bhupatindra Malla that is in the middle of the square.

This is only one of the windows in the 55 Windows Palace.

The Golden Gate is the entry way to the 55 Windows Palace.
 

Nyatapola Temple is in Taumadhi Square, just a few minutes walk from the first place we visited. It is still standing even after both earthquakes.

These statues run up the side of Nyatapola Temple.  

Unfortunately not every building could withstand the powerful earthquakes and ended up as a huge pile of rubble.



After visiting the two different squares we went to an art school that made paintings of mandalas as well as the Life of Buda and Wheel of Life.
 



On the way back to the vans, we saw this thing in the middle of the road. I'm not really sure what it is but I think it was some part of a festival.
