This is the closest any foreigner has described Kathmandu. Thank you

"Monks could be praying in one side of the street while kids rock out to heavy metal on the other side." 0:44-0:49 This land is full of colors. It fell but it will surely rise again. NEPAL

People always ask me what my hometown is like when I tell them I was born and raised in Nepal for most of my life. This is what I would've liked to share with them. Thank you for capturing the beauty of my city and my people Jonah.

That was such a beautiful City... I hope it can be that again.

Scott Costello WE will bounce back. But, trust me it will never be the same again. Towers, palaces, temples, courtyards will somehow be modernized than they used to be before. I mean they could no longer be made as ancient as they used to be.It's not just about investment but several arts and crafts are gone (damaged). We can recover part of those lost glory but what about the artists or craftsmen who might contribute building these ancient heritage? The 17th century artist (craftsman) and the present 21st century artist/craftsman wouldn't be the same. It wouldn't ever be easy to recover fully from this loss.

Hmm... I never been to Nepal before and about months ago i was discussing with friends to make a chance for all of us to go and see the magical things in Katmandu. Now all the dreams is gone and scattered into tears... Feel so devastated with just happened to Nepal rite now. We love you, NEPAL.

Saroj Adhikari Yes the damage and loses are really heart breaking. Their guide's house clapsed during the quake and boyfriend's group raised money to help with the restoration. They were near Pokhara at the time. The funny thing is that when he was changing money he took more than he planned/wanted because of some bank policies. I guess the universe made it right.

Wow! Pro video editing. Every single clips was so beutifull.

The most fascinating thing about Nepal is its people, and that remains the same. All man-made structures will fall at some time or another, but culture carries on through its people.

thank you

This video almost made me cry...

MAXIMUM temples or heritages shown in this video now are devastated... Our place... destroyed... but We have to raise it up again... #WeWillRiseAgain

I miss my nepal...though the beautiful buildings and temples all fell down...still i love my motherland...thank u for the video..

As a Nepalese myself though some of us are alive and well after suçh devastating event, it is sad to acknowlegde that we have lostbso many good people, families and especially those ancient buildings and temples that was the sign of our cultural heritage. This event can never be forgotten ever. My condolences to those unfortnates. :C and I just want to say thank you for this wonderful, inspirational and very meaningful video that you have made.

Awesome video presentation. Don't worry we will rise again. :)

Can't believe 8 years has passed already.

It's gone Really hurts

My home is near Nepal border and me and my friends were planning to visit Lumbini and Kathmandu in Nepal just 5 days before earthquake strikes in Nepal. I had been Nepal like 5 time but this time i was planning to see Nepal's beauty with my friends but those all temples were demolished by earthquake. I was crying and praying from god to help them.

The craftsmen in Nepal are some of the finest in the world and are refined each generation. Lives have been lost but the temples will be replaced. They probably wont have the same charm but will be much stronger.

So sad :'( I will never see it again. i was planning to visit nepal soon.

JpopKARAOKE We will rebuild the city again. We will recover all the beauty and heritage that was lost. But, it would never be the original ancient kathmandu. People over there are very resilient. They give much value to relationships and the well-being of others. Wealth, money and materialistic things are just the shared responsibility among each member of the family or community anyways. Just a perception from our side. No offence to you western guys. Live your life and be nice and helpful to everybody forever.

JpopKARAOKE Not all of these places are gone! The incredibly spectacular Monkey Temple is still there. The temple along the Bagmati River is still there, and the people are still there, and they are some of the most generous, sweet souls I have ever met. You can still meet Sadhus and chat with shopkeepers and buy their amazing textiles and brasswork. Thangkas are still being painted. Prayers are still being said. North of the city, there are still Himalayas. South of the city, there are still the tigers of Chitwan. So much to see and do in Nepal!!! The rest will be rebuilt.

Heaven on earth

So emotional for Citizens of Nepal... So sad

We have literally lost everything.. It could be impossible to re-live what I lived 5 days ago.. This agony could last for ever.. I hope there is no other spirituals places in this world if they are to be destroyed in this manner.. Looking towards the world from my home here in Kathmandu, I feel totally stripped :(

I miss the kathmandu....I wish everything was a nightmare and we could all go back to our normal life but I don't think that's possible..every small aftershock feels like end of us.... #nepalearthquake #wewillriseagaintogether

We will Bounce Back..

We will bounce back. I love my nepal. Give me and all Nepalese energy to rebuild our nepal. Our strength and unity is our power. Humans, Gods, animals and nature must coexist. That's the soul principle of Hinduism and Buddhism. We will sustain our injuries in this difficult time. We never lost with the giant neighbors, including British Superpower in the past centuries. But, this time nature was so powerful that we could not resist. Ancestor's creations are our symbol of peace, unity and craftsmanship. They must be revered and re-erected although it will never be the same again.

Please God!

🙏

this made me more sad :( when will everything be same ? :(

so sad!!!

I'm so sad.

Beautiful country, places just ruined out. So sad. :(

oh my country :(

we will rise again

We will rise again.

Help Nepal.

Very few people realized what we have before the earthquake , now everybody should press goverment to reconstruct the city after recovering from the shock we are going through now..
