The Buddha was born in Nepal? Am I right?

Yes! He was born in Lumbini which is located in southern Nepal.

Arniko’s Departure for China

Impressed with Nepali craftsmanship, the emperor of China invited Nepali craftsmen to China in the thirteenth century. A seventeen-year-old youth named Balabahu led a group of eighty artisans to China. It was this same Balabahu who later became famous as Arniko. The picture shows Balbahu’s farewell ceremony. A large crowd has assembled to watch the historic departure. The king’s men are waiting to hand over the letter and gifts being sent to the Chinese Emperor. Arniko’s father is giving him advice, while his mother’s face betrays anxiety. Near the doorway is Balabahu’s grief-stricken young wife. The sagun and other auspicious items for the ritual of departure have arrived.

The temples, houses, pati-pauwas and water spouts all give us a glimpse of the urban civilisation of the day.

About Me

I grew up in a small town helping my parents on their farm. There I developed my love for nature and a desire to explore. Now I travel around the world photographing nature.

Interests

I love to travel. I have been everywhere, from Alaska to Zimbabwe. For every trip I keep a travel log of my adventures and capture the world as I see it.

Check out my photo gallery to get a glimpse into where I have been. And drop me a line if want to find out more. I always love to hear from fellow travelers.

Aspirations

I am looking for my next big adventure. There are still many places I want to visit and even more to which I want to return. The camera is charged up and my backpack is packed; drop me a line if you know where I should go next.
