A Nepalese Novice Monk by Ryszard Wierzbicki
Buddhist Temples in Kathmandu are not as big as Hindu once. However you can find them mainly in Thamel area. Novice Monks are responsible for simple daily basis work in Monasteries attached to the Temples. The one I photographed was given me a guide tour assistance around the Buddhist places of Thamel.
