@markelruso Back then it was primitive, I am Nepali and i heartily agree with that because to westerners back then they would seem primitive. I bet if you go to certain part of Africa now and not help calling them primitive.

Beautiful art. some of the nepalese live in USA as refugees. We treat them well and enjoy them in our church. Great people.

Don't complain too much friends. Pashupatinath may not be town now. But in 54 it might have been a complete another town without buses, taxis and all those motorbikes. When I was a kid, even samakhusi felt like another town. I am also very happy to see old clips. Thanks to the uploader.

@somanshrestha ...listen to the commentary more carefully. the guy repeats the word "primitive" several times. He also uses the word "savage", although once.

just because they have their own culture, doesn't make them savages and primitives.

land of savagery, my ass. If this was someone in the current time doing such misinformed commentary, I wouldn't hesitate to punch the guy's face.
Atleast got to see the old beautiful KTM without the influence of all the commercialism and westernisation.
