Vacation in Kathmandu Valley
We saw the Nepal’s Kathmandut Valley …
As a result of the political revenge that has been carried out by some on the advice of Hatang’s teachers, the school vacation decided to go to Nepal with children because of the risk of arriving in Sri Lanka. Indeed, two and a half years after the earthquake, the rulers of Nepal could not even be able to build up the earthquake in 2015. It is very sad to see that. I was greatly destroyed by the 2004 tsunami in Sri Lanka and I recalled serving as Mahinda Rajapaksa the Prime Minister of that time to regain the country. It is time for us to think of the fate of Nepalese people if we do not have the courage of the country at the time. It’s time for us to control the country for 2-3 years.

Skidding Nepal is a beautiful country with high mountain peaks and spectacular flat land. Nepalese civilians are peaceful. Innocent. Their clothing is unrivaled and simple. Today, rural people who are more confident in traditional indigenous medicine are very poor. They live a very peaceful life.
Kathmandu is the capital city of 1.4 million inhabitants located in the Himalayas valley. The history of the city in the Himalayas is closely intertwined. This is BC. It’s about 167 degrees. Although Nepali is the main language, many can speak Hindi. Kathmandu was named after the name of the unique Mavu Sthal which was built by Lakshmi Narasingha in 1956. It is a three storeyed building made of wood in a single tree without one metal wire. Dubar was built in the Derb Square, named Kasthamandap, as “wood”. Mandap is the security point. It is believed that it later became a Kathmandu.
