I took inspiration from <a href="https://hikingandcoding.wordpress.com/2017/05/20/a-variation-on-the-andros-route/">this excellent variation</a> posted on the “Hiking and Coding” blog and came up with a modified itinerary where I’d walk about 90km in 5 days. I eventually covered that distance but made some changes along the way. This post is a photo diary of my itinerary.</p>https://yoav.blog/2019/03/31/sights-of-kathmandu/Sun, 31 Mar 2019 07:51:42 +0000https://yoav.blog/2019/03/31/sights-of-kathmandu/<p>These pictures were taken during a short trip to Kathmandu, Nepal, in March 2019.</p> <div class="wp-block-cover has-background-dim-20 has-background-dim alignfull is-layout-flow wp-block-cover-is-layout-flow" style="background-image:url('images/img_1724.jpg');"> <p class="wp-block-cover-text"> Bhaktapur </p> </div> <figure class="wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped"> <ul class="blocks-gallery-grid"> <li class="blocks-gallery-item"> <figure><a href="images/img_1748.jpg"><img src="images/img_1748.jpg" alt="Bhaktapur architecture" /></a></figure> </li> <li class="blocks-gallery-item"> <figure><a href="images/img_1754.jpg"><img src="images/img_1754.jpg" alt="Bhaktapur details" /></a></figure> </li> <li class="blocks-gallery-item"> <figure><a href="images/img_1749.jpg"><img src="images/img_1749.jpg" alt="Bhaktapur streets" /></a></figure> </li> <li class="blocks-gallery-item"> <figure><a href="images/img_1734.jpg"><img src="images/img_1734.jpg" alt="Traditional crafts" /></a></figure> </li> <li class="blocks-gallery-item"> <figure><a href="images/img_1744.jpg"><img src="images/img_1744.jpg" alt="Local artisan" /></a></figure> </li> <li class="blocks-gallery-item"> <figure><a href="images/img_1739.jpg"><img src="images/img_1739.jpg" alt="Temple details" /></a></figure> </li> <li class="blocks-gallery-item"> <figure><a href="images/img_1732.jpg"><img src="images/img_1732.jpg" alt="Architecture close-up" /></a></figure> </li> <li class="blocks-gallery-item"> <figure><a href="images/img_1728.jpg"><img src="images/img_1728.jpg" alt="Street scene" /></a></figure> </li> <li class="blocks-gallery-item"> <figure><a href="images/img_1708.jpg"><img src="images/img_1708.jpg" alt="Cultural heritage" /></a></figure> </li> </ul> </figure> <div class="wp-block-cover has-background-dim alignfull is-layout-flow wp-block-cover-is-layout-flow" style="background-image:url('images/img_1795-pano.jpg');"> <p class="wp-block-cover-text"> Pashupatinath Temple </p> </div> <figure class="wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped"> <ul class="blocks-gallery-grid"> <li class="blocks-gallery-item"> <figure><a href="images/img_1767.jpg"><img src="images/img_1767.jpg" alt="Pashupatinath Temple" /></a></figure> </li> <li class="blocks-gallery-item"> <figure><a href="images/img_1771.jpg"><img src="images/img_1771.jpg" alt="Temple architecture" /></a></figure> </li> <li class="blocks-gallery-item"> <figure><a href="images/img_1773.jpg"><img src="images/img_1773.jpg" alt="Religious ceremony" /></a></figure> </li> <li class="blocks-gallery-item"> <figure><a href="images/img_1778.jpg"><img src="images/img_1778.jpg" alt="Temple complex" /></a></figure> </li> <li class="blocks-gallery-item"> <figure><a href="images/img_1789.jpg"><img src="images/img_1789.jpg" alt="Sacred site" /></a></figure> </li> <li class="blocks-gallery-item"> <figure><a href="images/img_1791.jpg"><img src="images/img_1791.jpg" alt="Temple grounds" /></a></figure> </li> </ul> </figure> <div class="wp-block-cover has-background-dim alignfull is-layout-flow wp-block-cover-is-layout-flow" style="background-image:url('images/img_1795-pano-1.jpg');"> <p class="wp-block-cover-text"> Swayambhunath (Monkey Temple) </p>https://yoav.blog/2011/07/20/santorini-gallery/Wed, 20 Jul 2011 17:39:56 +0000https://yoav.blog/2011/07/20/santorini-gallery/<p>Just came back from a trip to beautiful Santorini.
