Kathmandu, Nepal, 2010
This is a very small portion of the Pashupatinath Temple, one of the most significant Hindu temples of Lord Shiva in the world and a UNESCO World Heritage site, reflected in Bagmati River.

That is very beautiful, thank you for sharing!
What rich textures. A great photo!
Shiva, the destroyer who clears the way for the new and dances on the head of the demon in his circle of fire. He is the one whom the children in school always remember :)
Awesome reflection Francisca. ^_^

Your photo is extremely impressive. I am always amazed at the number of world sights you have seen.
I guess, since you are not Hindu, this was as close as you were going to get to this holy temple!
Very nice reflection, Francisca. It feel so zen ! I like it lot.
i was planning on saying that i like the red... but on closer inspection I wonder if that was not an attempt to erase some graffiti? maybe they should have painted the whole wall - now that would have been dramatic!
Oh, Francisca - another place of my dreams! Wow, thanks for sharing!
Have a great weekend:)
Wow, I'm envious! Our son was at the border of Nepal -because he was in India for 3 weeks He has a former room mate that's now a doctor, working in Nepal. He suggested to our son not to go in, because it may be hard to get out...but with your job you probably don't encounter that problem:):)
By the way, great reflection!
I too loved the colors and the awesome reflection here. So impressive!
Beautiful building, beautiful reflections. Mickie ;)
Oh so beautiful! What a perfect place to be.
Oh, I could gaze at this all day long. Superb shot!
Which is more beautiful, the temple or its reflection? It's impossible to decide!
LOVE THAT REFLECTION!
Tell reflections that you love them,
Spurn reflections, if you dare.
Keep reflections out of darkness,
Keep them in the sun’s harsh glare!

Reflection in Wayside Pool
Now this is something worth seeing in double. Very nice reflection. :)
Gorgeous shot and reflection! I would guess this place is open to the public.
Can you imagine how much time and money has gone into the building religious structures around the world since the beginning of time and how much could have been done with that energy and money if it had been expended toward actually helping people in need?
Re the WV - no problems so far. I'm getting lots of spam - porn stuff from anonymous - but I had that before and I simply delete it.
A beautiful place with a lovely reflection, Francisca. I wonder if the river had anything to do with it being declared a UNESCO World Heritage site. Saving rivers is as important as, if not more important than saving ancient buildings, and to save the two together would be great.

What an excellent photo, Francisca! Please check your "X" post, because I was finally able to leave a comment!!!
Beautiful Francisca! How many World Heritage Sites have you visited? I'm betting it's quite a few.
I would love to visit Nepal and this proves why! That glorious wall, I would love to photograph that! Your reflection is perfect.

Wonderful scene. Is that graffiti behind that red on the wall?
I LOVED Pashupatinath!!! What a magical place it is. First cremation I've witnessed, will never forget it.
I love the colours and the reflection here.
An interesting place, excellent composition and a great reflection!
Beautiful.
The colors are marvelous Francisca. Digital colors are way over the top too often.
A stunning building even without that great reflection ;-)
