Photo of a statue representing Buddha
Most of nepali people pray Buddha
In Kathmandu, as well as in every other nepali city, the religion is everywhere. There are many places where one can stop and pray. Indeed it is not seldom to come across a statue representing a divinity like Buddha or else in the street.
The religion-related statue are not always as big as the Buddha statue in the photo. This one was massive!
Buddha is at the base of buddhism, the main religion in Nepal. Therefore it is not surprising to see that kind of amazing giant statue of Buddha, shining in the sun with gaudy colours.
