Dharahara draws crowd of visitors

Kathmandu, Dec. 8: Two Buddhist monks were watching their mobile phones sitting in the shadow of the 82-metre tall newly rebuilt Dharahara on Friday afternoon. They were probably waiting for their turn to climb the tower. One gentleman was inquiring about the ticket counter with a gateman at the north gate across the tower while a group of youth were busy taking photographs of Dharahara on the overhead bridge. Others were roaming on the pavement just outside the Dharahara premises.
