Travel in Nepal 1

Last Christmas holiday, I traveled to Nepal. I have dreamed to go there since I was a kid. I loved to watch T.V. programs about visiting exotic countries on the National Geographic Channel. Nepal was one of the most fascinating destinations for me. Last year, my friend moved to Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal as an NGO employee. She invited me over and offered me free accommodation. I had enough mileage points to fly there, so I decided to go to my dream destination.
When I arrived in Kathmandu, I felt like I had arrived in the last century. There were no modern buildings. The traffic was crowded with old cars which were giving off black fumes. The roads were not paved well. Besides, they've been trying to expand all the roads in their capital. It means, all Kathmandu has been under construction. 

My hair, face, and clothes became very dirty immediately. Many people were using face masks to avoid the dusty air. One of the images of Nepal is the beautiful view of the Himalayan Mountain Range in clean, fresh air. But in Kathmandu, the air is very dirty and might be polluted. Although it's dusty air, Kathmandu looked bustling and vibrant. 

I saw a lot of people in colorful clothes on the street where there were many small shops along with narrow paths. It looked like a labyrinth.
