Small excursion around Bhimphedi

Written by Nicolas Gautier, volunteer at the Children’s Home.

Sunday 29th January was a public holiday: Shaheed Diwas, in English The Martyrs Day. This day commemorates four young revolutionary pro-democracy protesters against the Rana regime that were executed in 1941 (Shukraraj Shastri, Dharma Bhakta Mathema, Dashrath Chand and Gangalal Shrestha).

We took the opportunity to stretch our legs in the paths around Bhimphedi. Once the picnic and bottles of water were in our bags, 13 of us took the way to the hills.

The round walk through Suping and Jamire has wonderful views, that we try to share with you with some of the photos we took:
