Monkey see…

monkey do.

A definite highlight of Kathmandu was Swayambhunath, aka: The Monkey Temple. The temple is on the edge of town on a hill and it’s crawling with monkeys! (There’s even a monkey swimming pool!)

To actually view the stupa (Buddhist temple) itself, you must hike up a very steep and long staircase.

Once you reach the top you’re rewarded with not only the stupa, but a nice (read: cloudy) view of the city as well.

Unfortunately, because we visited near twilight, a lot of my monkey photos didn’t turn out well.

There’s just something about a monkey that makes you laugh. I love them.

  1. The more I look at those bells the more they seem to be moving. Love the monkeys.

  2. Reminds me of the little monkey that stole away our coca cola in the jungle, while the piggy was waiting for a belly rub! Hehe!

  3. Monkey number 2 is shocked to have his picture taken! Number 3 is adorable…
