After I left my village I had a little time to travel around the country. We went to Pokhara and Lumbini, the birthplace of Buddha, and I had the chance to see some awesome temples in Kathmandu. Before that, however, was a visit to a cave.
This stone marks the exact birthplace of Buddha.
At Lumbini several countries have monastaries such as these two.
This is the pool where Buddha's mother bathed before giving birth to him. 
Boudanath Temple in Kathmandu
A wonderful Buddhist location.
This is at a Hindu temple in Kathmandu, it is a place where bodies are burned and the ashes are placed in a river that flows into the Ganges, a holy river in the Hindu religion.
There are also monkeys everywhere
On our way to Pokhara we rode on top of the bus for most of the four hours. It is an enjoyment I wish everyone could experience.
