Patan -the third royal city in Kathmandu Valley lies closer then Bhaktapur. It is walking distance – like an hour walk from Thamel south. Otherwise you can take a public bus paying only 15 rs each way.The old Patan is located on the hill. Nice Durbar Square with pagodas and palace is on both side of the old street. There is a lot to photograph. Old citizens are sitting in the shadow of the palace -just sit along, be discret and soon you will have a nice collection of characters… I took also ladies selling offering flowers…
Already yesterday on the streets they were selling paints in powder,, baloons to be filled with water and so on. Today it is Holi -on this day they are spraying each other with color water, they paint also their faces and lough… I do hope I’ll survive clean…
