Beskrivelse
"There's a one-eyed yellow idol to the north of Kathmandu... " wrote J Milton Hayes in his famous poem about this once-secret land. First published in 2004, these pages take the reader on a voyage of discovery through centuries long past. Kathmandu is a secret no more, but its hidden enchantment can still be found, deep within its tiny lanes and tangled byways. Mysterious idols and temples dot the urban and rural landscapes of this verdant valley. This journey back in time includes anecdotes, legends and tales about the valley since 1974, when idle hippies made their homes in Kathmandu. Evocative images remain across the Kathmandu Valley. Seek out its obscure treasures, explore the famous places and discover the changing faces of this intriguing and enigmatic city.
