| 説明 | Pleasant mountain views of the snow capped Himalayas from a hilltop viewing point in Bandipur, Nepal. I have always been very unlucky with mountainscapes- snow capped or otherwise, as any mountain I've tried to photograph in the 60 years of my life have been either totally obscured by cloud cover, or have disappeared behind clouds in those few nanoseconds I had taken to merely switch on my camera! Well, Bandipur here seemed to be no exception as well- as you can see, clouds cover most of the snow capped mountains except for one tiny peak at the extreme left. In the 1800s, the mountain-top bazaar town of Bandipur grew in wealth and importance. Traders came from Tibet with musk pods, mountain herbs, animal skins, and horses. Calico, tobacco, glassware, and kerosene came in from British India. However, when Nepal opened her doors to the world in the 1950s, Pokhara with its airfield began to gain importance, and in 1972 the Kathmandu- Pokhara highway by-passed Bandipur completely. Although it lost it's commercial importance, thanks to the new highway and the airport of Pokhara, Bandipur has managed to survive as a quaint tourist destination. It offers tourists lovely mountain views like this one, as well as a well preserved slice of history in the pedestrian-only village area. Tourists can in addition enjoy trekking and other outdoor activities here in Bandipur. I skipped visiting the town itself for want of time. (Bandipur, Nepal, Oct/ Nov. 2019) |
