Review by Renate Mousseux. M.A. ED: Through Nepalese Eyes is a highly interesting, authentic story taking the reader through traditions and customs of 2 different countries.

We see comparisons of Europe and Asia and learn about the vast differences of life. This book is a must read, I recommend it highly. (Renate Mousseux. M.A. ED.

And the clock chimes the hours one minute before all the clocks in the town, which is, indeed, a privilege. The Musegg Wall with its nine towers forms a part of the historic town fortifications.
