Part 1

	Holy Man This holy man at the Jagannath Temple in Kathmandu's Durbar Square gets people to photograph him for money, which is what he is doing here. Some university students told me he was in a Lonely Planet book, and tried to find him in mine, but he was not in that edition. (10/26/94)
	Swayambhunath, the Monkey Temple This temple sits on a hill overlooking Kathmandu. At the center is a large stupa, from which the eyes of Buddha look in four directions. (10/27/94)
	Monkey at Swayambhunath Swayambhunath is also called the Monkey Temple, because of all the monkeys which live here. Monkeys are a sacred animal. (10/27/94)
	Religious activities at Swayambhunath Swayambhunath is an important center for many religious activities, some of which are seen at this temple. (10/27/94)
