0.000 HBDA part of Pashupatinath
*Many things struck me when I visited the **Pashupatinath** Hindu temple complex. The cremation platforms or ghats, for one... as well as the Bagmati river which runs alongside, that was rather dry then.* *Another was the various buildings and structures within the vast compound.* *This is a view of a small part of the place ~ ashrams, temples, accommodation for various groups of people, all built along the flow of the land. This portion flowed up the hillside, and along with the trees, captured my imagination... Something about it...* _____________ [](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmUvBnPruZoZa9QHMrhzKyvsDGH9LwF68tRfUGgouwWN4n/P2073022b.jpg) <center>*Lots of people live in Pashupatinath I couldn't tell you who exactly.. but lots of them Some, maybe many go to die there It is regarded as the holiest place thereabouts, and dying there is a good thing*</center><br> _____________ [](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmV3FB8wGucZhmiYSg83LDLVBSUdepK3Y3BQDWxUgfbLa8/P2073025%20b.jpg) <center>*Just below that hill, or along its sides are caves where people and sadhus or yogis live These face the Bagmati river and the other bank where visitors and tourists stand and sit to observe the cremations and rituals*</center><br> _____________ <sub>Captured with OLYMPUS FE4030 | © images & text original content | click images for fullscreen view</sub> _____________ ###### #Monochromes and #monomad by @brumest ~ more about it [here](https://steemit.com/monomad/@monochromes/monomad-august-21st-winning-picks-and-honorable-mentions)<br> <br> _____________ _____________ ### <br><center>I'm with QURATOR...
