    Another city near Kathmandu. This one famous for pottery and woodcarving. First are a couple of pagodas, the 5 level one most famous here. Then a street paved with brick, like most streets in this town with lots of clay works. Next is a look at some of the wood carving, including the peacock carved in the window frame. Notice in the next that the Potter is turning a heavy stone wheel that he uses to work the clay. This is a new type of wheel to me. The last looks down into pottery square from a 6th floor walk up cafe.Read more
