the Garden of Dreams! what an evocative name, and so disappointing. 3 minutes walk from our hotel, we got lost & got to it after walking around for 40 minutes & finally taking rickshaws. basically nicely maintained old colonial gardenMar 09, 2008

brother & sister-in-law enjoying a rickshaw ride (actually, we got lost in the narrow winding streets trying to get to the Garden of Dreams, and so we ended up taking riskshaws only to discover it was 3 minutes walk from our hotel)Mar 09, 2008

informal vegetable market around one of the many squares of kathmanduMar 09, 2008

it was very cold at night (30 F), and most people don't have heating in their homes. we'd see people warming themselves by little streetside fires Mar 09, 2008
