From dawn 'til dusk, hundreds of monks as well as Nepalese and Tibetans of every age walk around a 40m high stupa called Boudha or Bodhnath. They pray their mantra by murmuring and twirling the prayer wheels over and over, seeking for accumulated wisdom and merit (good karma) as well as purified negativity (bad karma).

Prior to your visit to the remarkable holy Buddhism stupa, located about 3km east of the main tourist area Thamel, you need to get past two barriers: first of all, the pronunciation of 'Swayambhunath' and second, the 365 stairs up to the main stupa on top of the hill. But it's worth the effort: hundreds of peaceful monkeys will accord a hearty welcome and a stunning view of the Kathmandu Valley with the surrounding mountains will provide your Lomo with breathtaking pictures.

Do amanhecer ao crepúsculo, centenas de monges, assim como Nepaleses e Tibetanos de todas as idades andam ao redor de uma estupa de 40 metros de altura chamada de Budha ou Bodhnath. Eles rezam seus mantras murmurando e girando as rodas de oração mais e mais, buscando sabedoria e mérito (karma bom), bem como a negatividade purificada (karma ruim).
