IN PICS: Kathmandu’s Timeless Wooden Windows



KATHMANDU: In the ever-evolving landscape of Kathmandu, where the winds of modernization and globalization sweep away traces of tradition, a few relics stand as poignant reminders of what once was.

As the cityscape transforms, these windows remain steadfast, capturing the essence of a bygone era.

Our Khabarbub Photojournalist, Chirayu Shakya, has skillfully captured these timeless pieces of art.

Each photograph tells a story, unraveling the intricate tales embedded in the woodwork, showcasing the mastery and skill that went into crafting these architectural gems.
