Bhotechour- Jarshing Pauwa


This place look so beautiful, like heaven yes this place is from Sakhu- Bhotechaur-Jarsing Pauwa. 
Driving 21 km from Sakhu we reach Tea Garden which is also known as Sano Ilam. This place is famous for picnic as well as mountain and tea garden. At top there isn't many much houses and life's but cafe and shop are available in few number.

Well this place need some protection as people throw all the plastic, paper and bottle anywhere, which hamper the people who visit here and travel to gain or absorb the natural beauty.

Women Winnowing.



A wall painting, I come across this beautiful wall art at lagankhel...this amazing wall art where a woman is winnowing rice by nanglo. Winnowing is a tradition that is still practiced in both rural as well as urban areas of Nepal. Nepal is considered as an agricultural country, many types of grains are grown in large fields across the country.  Winnowing newly harvested rice is an important task. So, at a large extent winnowing is practiced by farmers to separate the grains from chaffs and supply edible crops to the market as well as for personal uses. She is seprating rice grains from the chaffs which we can see on art. Almost every household still winnow rice, lentils and other crops by the help of an equipment usually made by bamboo and it's called Nanglo in then Nepali language.


Rice, wheat, millet, barley and other crops are major food of many people in Nepal. The cultivation of rice is mainly dependent to rainfall which is the main determining factor. However, rice is cultivated in 1.5 million hectares of arable land in Nepal where rice is the main crops and contributed only around 50%(percent) in total crops production.

Though, with technology the method of seprating grains from chaffs have also became mechanised yet farmers and household prefer winnowing by their hands and winnowing is an almost everyday household activity in nepali families. Further more, it is also an interesting sight to see a farmer winnowing, the chaffs falling down and the grains being filtered in an easy traditional method. 

The government of Nepal has come so far that in 56 varieties of rice the most delicious and highly sold is Sabitri and Hardinath. 


The art which shows the traditional way of winnowing by a woman from a cultural group of the Tarai plains. The main purpose of Tarai region is cultivation because of better climate and soil then Himalayan.

Rose flower



Flowers, well, if we see then there are so many flowers with various colours,textures, sizes,fragnances which we can find in and out of our homes. Flowers are used inside home,office to make more attractive as flowers are the plants which attract human beings. They are not only used for decoration but also used for perfume.


Flower, rose is one of the beautiful flower which comes from Latin word 'Rosa'. Rose is a flower that is considered all over the world as the symbol of love. Different colour with different meaning. There are more then 100 species of roses are found on earth. Rose can be bigger or small it depends on it's species. Rose thorns are prickles and grow out of the epidermis. 

Rose was found at Europe for the first time but later it was grown in many parts of the country. Well I haven't seen any cultivation of rose in Nepal well in one nurseries hardly there will be 20 roses plant with same species. In Nepal people hardly plant rose flower as they are focused just for gifts. So less number of roses are only available in Nepal. 

As the oldest fossils of Rose have been found in Colorado by the research which is more than 35 million years ago.

Well if we talk about Netherlands it is the only country which cultivate with high percent of rose.

ButterFly

A butterfly

Many research and studies about the butterflies said that Nepal is tobe one of the best in the world for butterflies with over  600 species and 20 of which are on the endangered list. There are diffrent types of butterflies in different environment like hot and cold, dry and moist. Most butterfly species however are found in tropical ares, especially tropical rainforests, some found at sea level and high in the mountains too. Many of them, who visit to Nepal, many all of them don't know that Nepal is home to a massive variety of delicate and colorful butterfly species. 
Butterfly habitat shifts can also be early-warning signs of climate change. They lay eggs on the their food i.e. young leaves. 
Well the butterfly comes out of its cocoon and chrysalis when certain flowers are in bloom and upsetting this balance could not only affect the feeding of the caterpillars, but the pollination of the flowers. This beautiful colourful creature in Nepal has 651 species and which is 3.72% of the world’s butterflies. I love to take this beautiful pictures of butterfly on my camera which gives colour on my camera too
