We first rode down Sorakhutte to Naya Bazaar, then through the Balaju Industrial Estate and stopped just below the Nagarjun Forest Reserve. This is where we usually stop to gather before proceeding whenever we ride along here. Everyone gathered, except for Lila and Chonkay. They were missing, but we thought they went to buy some extra tubes, so we just waited. Finally they arrived, and no they did not buy any tubes because Chonkay had really took the wrong turn and gotten lost for a while. On top of that, he had a flat tyre. So we waited while he went to get his flat tyre fixed&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

The entire terrain is like a steep incline, descending from the icy Himalayan heights to the hot Terai flatland within a short distance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.apisaipaltreks.com.np/search.html?ordering=&amp;amp;searchphrase=all&amp;amp;searchword=kathmandu+tours"&gt;Kathmandu Tours&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Historial Background:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The city of Kathmandu was built by king Gun Kamdev in 723 A.D. It is said that Kathmandu was a lake in the past and was made habitable by Manjushree, who cut open the hill to south Chovar) as to allow the water of lake to flow out.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;It is said that Kathmandu city was named after " Kastha-Mandap" meaning the temple made of wood in Sanskrit , an imposing pagoda near Hanuman Dhoka Palace. It was built in 1596 out of a single tree by King Laxmi Narashingha Malla.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Orientation:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kathmandu is the capital of the kingdom, situated in a valley which is an open air museum of famous sites, ancient temples and shrines, golden pagodas and are inspiring deities, is a city of inexhaustible historic artistic and cultural interest.

Some two hundred years ago a western Visitor wrote that there were as many temples as there were houses and many idols as there were people. In fact Kathmandu boasts one of the largest congregations of magnificent historical monuments and shrines ever built. Duly recognized as a &lt;a href="http://www.apisaipaltreks.com.np/tours/city-tours/nsp031-nepal-heritage.html"&gt;World Heritage Site&lt;/a&gt; by UNESCO- this particular area best known as &lt;a href="http://www.apisaipaltreks.com.np/tours/city-tours/nsp022-kathmandu-valley.html"&gt;Kathmandu Durbar Square&lt;/a&gt; lies in the heart of this city. Locally also called as Hanuman Dhoka Palace Square-an ancient seat of the Nepalese Royalty.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Hanuman Dhoka Palace Complex consists of a huge Royal Square imposing a tremendous variety of temples dedicated to different Hindu gods and goddess. Most of the buildings we see here date from 15th to 18th century.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;The entire Palace Complex here is named after a monkey god called Hanuman. One can see a huge stone statue of Hanuman painted all red right next to the main entrance ( the golden gate) of the palace. Hanuman here is regarded as a powerful protector of the entire Durbar Square.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Some of the important monuments to be seen here are:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Taleju temple- tallest of all structures built by king Mahendra Malla in 1549 A.D.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Jagannath temple&lt;/strong&gt; - built in the 16th century, known for fascinating erotic figures carving I the wooden struts eaves. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Kal Bhairav&lt;/strong&gt; - one of the largest stone idol in Kathmandu representing the terrifying aspects of Shiva.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Statue of King Pratap Malla in praying gesture to Digu Taleju the royal family deity right across.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Kumari Ghar &lt;/strong&gt;- 17th century Kumari temple, an example of the highly developed Nepalese temple craft.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Kasthamandap &lt;/strong&gt;- built from the timber of a single tree. The Kathmandu City derives its name from Kasthamandap.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.apisaipaltreks.com.np/images/stories/popular_destinations/kasthamandap%20set70135.jpg" border="0" alt="Kasthamandap, Kathmandu, Nepal" title="Kasthamandap, Kathmandu, Nepal" width="250" height="115" align="left" /&gt;Besides this other fascinating part of this palace complex is the towering Nautale Durbar overlooking the beautiful cityscape and the vast Basantapur square where Prithivi Narayan Shah built mansion to commemorate his victory in 1768 A.D. This building complex is known for the most intricately carved wooden doorways roof struts and massive lattice windows full of mythical figures.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Swyambhunath Stupa(Monkey Temple)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Located in a lovely little hill rock Swoyambhu Nath Stupa is one of the most fascinating architectural jewels of the world. This great Stoup is said to have been built around 250 B.C.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.apisaipaltreks.com.np/images/stories/popular_destinations/swayambhu%20nath%20set000374.jpg" border="0" alt="Swyambhunath Stupa, Kathmandu, Nepal" title="Swyambhunath Stupa, Kathmandu, Nepal" width="250" height="209" align="left" /&gt;Generally a holy memorial site Stoup represents a typical Buddhist architecture. Its main feature the white dome is identified with a spotless pure jewel of Nirvana and a thirteen tiered golden spire in conical shape surmounted on the dome. Underneath this towering structure are a pair of all seeing eyes of Buddha painted on all four sides of the Stupa.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;The Stupa of Swoyambhunath stands on a typically stylized lotus mandala base-a long time ago believed to have originated from a legendary lake of Kathmandu Valley.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;As the ancient legend goes Kathmandu Valley was a lake a long time ago. Right in the centre of this lake was a full blown lotus with the divine light a top. When Maha Manjushri a saint from China heard about this he came rushing all the way from China to the Valley. He cut through the southern wall hill of the valley with his divine sword. The cleft made by the sword immediately drained the entire lake water making the valley floor open for a close up view of the divine lotus light.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;This holy site in fact is the massive stupa complex ever built in Nepal. Hundreds of votive shrines and other historical monuments built in and around this stupa speak a lot about the significance and antiquity of this famed stupa.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;It lies about 3k.m. west of down town Kathmandu. There are two different ways to reach for this site. One is from the west side which is relatively a short cut and another is from the east side where it leads to the main entrance with 360 steps leading all the way to the top, where the most venerated Swayambhu Stupa stands-commanding a magnificent view of Kathmandu Valley and the breathtaking panorama of the north eastern Himalayan range.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Boudha Nath Stupa&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.apisaipaltreks.com.np/images/stories/popular_destinations/bouddha%20nath%20set000038.jpg" border="0" alt="Boudha Nath Stupa, Kathmandu, Nepal" title="Boudha Nath Stupa, Kathmandu, Nepal" width="250" height="115" align="left" /&gt;One of the oldest and the biggest Buddhist monuments ever built in Nepal, Boudhanath is an imposing structure standing some 36 meters. The Stupa stands on the massive three level mandala style Platforms surrounded by colourful private family houses. The basic feature of this great stupa is very much like that of Swoyambhunath stupa except its finial displaying. It is much bigger than Swoyambhu stupa and lies on the valley floor whereas the former one stands on the hill top. This stupa is said to have been built in 5th century A. D. The site is considered very much like Mecca for the Tibetan Buddhists and every year tens of thousands of pilgrims from all over the Himalayan region visit the stupa.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;According to a very popular legend long time ago the kingdom of Kathmandu was under terrifying draught. King Dharma Deva was very worried. An astrologer advised him that only the sacrifice of an ideal man with 32 virtues in front of the dry royal water spout could make the rain fall in the country. And in the following night he commanded his son to go to the dry water spout inside the royal palace compound at mid night and behead the person shrouded in white robe without looking at him. The Prince obeyed his father but to his great horror only to find it was none other than his own father.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pashupatinath Temple&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.apisaipaltreks.com.np/images/stories/popular_destinations/pashupatinath%20set000310.jpg" border="0" alt="Pashupatinath Temple, Kathmandu, Nepal" title="Pashupatinath Temple, Kathmandu, Nepal" width="250" height="121" align="left" /&gt;Pasupatinath is considered one of the holiest shrines of all the Hindu temples.

The temple consists of a pond in which lies a great stone figure of the Hindu god Vishnu reclining on the coils of a cosmic serpent. The huge statue of sleeping Vishnu is carved from the single block of black stone of a type not found in the valley. It is believed that ages before the two hardworking farmers (husband and wife) discovered the statue when they were ploughing their field.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Besides Budhanilkantha temple, there are other two sets of exactly similar, but smaller statues of 'sleeping Vishnu' in the Valley. One set is in the Balaju garden and the other is hidden in the old garden of Hanuman Dhoka Palace of Kathmandu city. A prophetic dream of King Pratap Malla generated the belief that the King of Nepal should never visit Buddhanilkantha temple on threat of death. He then built the similar statue in two places.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Balaju Water Garden:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.apisaipaltreks.com.np/images/stories/popular_destinations/Balaju%20Water%20Garden10%20set90003.jpg" border="0" alt="Balaju Water Garden, Kathmandu, Nepal" title="Balaju Water Garden, Kathmandu, Nepal" width="250" height="114" align="left" /&gt;It is situated below Nagarjun Hill about five-kilometer northwest of Kathmandu City.

My dad has it. He worked hard all his life to provide a good life for his family, saving and withholding his desires of pampering himself with luxuries. And now retired, with most of the family obligations fulfilled, he can't  indulge  himself with  what he is passionate about, food. Its really sad watching him eat those plain untasteful food while he still provides us with the best. He has been battling it for 4 years now, medications, yoga and exercises with controlled diet; still the disease is there. So heres a little more info on the disease if you care to know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is a disease where improper functioning of insulin causes the  sugar level in the blood to increase and may cause heart  problem, kidney failure, blurred vision if not treated timely. Although it is said that hereditary and genetics leads to &lt;strong style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;diabetes&lt;/strong&gt;, it is also caused by the increased production of glucose level in the blood vessels and reduced  production of glucose in the body, and also caused due to infections caused by  viruses. Other causes are due to Stress, obesity, increased cholesterol level, excess intake of oil and sugar,  and no physical exercise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;You will probably guess it by the symptoms. Loss of weight indicates that there is a problem in the blood sugar level and  functioning of insulin; Blurred vision; Frequent urination is one of major symptom that indicates  &lt;strong style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;diabetes; &lt;/strong&gt;Severe hunger pain or emptiness, stress and irritation also give sign of  &lt;strong style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;diabetes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's a list of Dos and Don's I got from a pamphlet:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;You can take a good care on what you eat because controlling diet and eating right is very important for diabetic patients and their health.&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Eat low-fat diet and eat vegetables like spinach, cucumber. They are good  for controlling &lt;strong style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;diabetes&lt;/strong&gt;.  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Eat fruits and milk products like cheese.  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Avoid eating starchy food products as they are not easily digestible.  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Diabetic patient should not be scared of eating sugar-rich fruits. These are  safe and do not increase insulin production.  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Take less amount of oil and avoid coffee, sugar, refined flour, alcohol.  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Avoid eating heavy meals; eat small meals as the foods are easily digestible  and are good for the health of diabetics.  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Onion, sprouts, beans, garlic, tomatoes in the diet of diabetics low down  the sugar level in the blood.  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Avoid taking stress as it worsens the conditions.  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Avoid eating mutton, excess salt in your meal as this will help in  controlling your body weight and &lt;strong style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;diabetes&lt;/strong&gt;.  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Avoid junk food and oily food as this will control your level of  cholesterol, lowers your blood pressure level, and &lt;strong style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;diabetes&lt;/strong&gt;.  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Avoid white bread, rice, and potatoes.  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Eat tomatoes and vegetable salad. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2913233060125224295-5302499484437523212?l=nepalholidaypackages.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nepalholidaypackages.blogspot.com/feeds/5302499484437523212/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2913233060125224295&amp;postID=5302499484437523212' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2913233060125224295/posts/default/5302499484437523212'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2913233060125224295/posts/default/5302499484437523212'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nepalholidaypackages.blogspot.com/2008/03/diabetes.html' title='Diabetes'/><author><name>Sea</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07878118176731577036</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://bp3.blogger.com/_B53MV7JKa8E/R9RUOmmTviI/AAAAAAAAAAM/X4nYaeiyZyE/S220/finalme2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2913233060125224295.post-6412974269542064070</id><published>2008-03-12T01:19:00.003+05:30</published><updated>2009-04-08T00:20:40.723+05:30</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Health'/><title type='text'>Plastic Surgery</title><content type='html'>Why?

I didn't realize how common it was until I paid more attention to whats happening around me. Nose jobs, implants, enlargements, lifts... and I thought Plastic surgery was a kind of re-constructive procedure for those who were born with a deformed or less attractive body, where defaced areas are restored. Oh how wrong I was. It is more like cosmetics.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just saw a show on TV and according to it, "Plastic surgery happens in a culture where we are impaled on the effects of first impressions." Isn't the whole world impaled on that effect? Does it mean its a global phenomena?  I know that if a woman ceases to be attractive physically, it affects the physical and intimate relationship.

Don't know what to do, just bored. Maybe a quick smoke will be good, but let me finish writing my first post first. hahaha. Whats there to write about? Well, I just write whats in my mind now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Google Adsense. When I just signed up, the form required me to fill in a zip code. Where I am located, there is no zip postal code. The only codes that I know of is area code for telecommunication and my city ward number which is only a single digit. so how did i fill it in? I filled in half my house registration number. What else could I do? Its stupid! Or maybe I'm ignorant, but I do not know my zip postal code, hahaha. But I tried so hard with so many other possible codes, but it only accepted 5 characters(digits) and their little blue '?' mark beside the Zip input was supposed to help me find my code, but it didn't. And it didn't accept any of of my inputs. huff... nvm.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2913233060125224295-1261225186601234955?l=nepalholidaypackages.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nepalholidaypackages.blogspot.com/feeds/1261225186601234955/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2913233060125224295&amp;postID=1261225186601234955' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2913233060125224295/posts/default/1261225186601234955'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2913233060125224295/posts/default/1261225186601234955'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nepalholidaypackages.blogspot.com/2008/03/bored.html' title='Bored'/><author><name>Sea</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07878118176731577036</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://bp3.blogger.com/_B53MV7JKa8E/R9RUOmmTviI/AAAAAAAAAAM/X4nYaeiyZyE/S220/finalme2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
