Bandipur

Bridge to the school

Looking over Bandipur

Leaving Kathmandu, we headed towards the mountain town of Bandipur. We stopped about half-way and hiked over the river to a school, where we donated supplies and chatted a little with the kids. (well, some people chatted with the kids) Then we had lunch on the riverbank.

Bandipur is a really old-school town with no vehicles. It's a quiet, relaxing place. All the hotels are just converted homes, which means all the doorways are about 5' 5” high. (The Nepalese are quite small; our guide towers over people, and he's 5' 9”) The height issue came into play as I banged my head on absolutely every doorway for 24hrs.
