Kathmandu - the monkey temple






One of the biggest sites of the city is the infamous monkey temple where, as you would imagine, many monkeys hang out. It is also an important place of worship for Buddhists and Hindus alike and, again, even having hired a guide much of the meaning behind all of the stupas and temples didn't seem to be able to be translated. Sadly the monkey pictures are on another memory card which the machine is refusing to read at the moment so you will have to wait until I get home to see them but at the end of the day a monkey is a monkey and I am sure you have all seen pictures of monkeys before... but may be not so of the monkey temple itself.
