Chandan Acharya has created a group on Facebook called
“Nepal in Pictures”. To date he has over 1000 fans and contributors that
include both professional and amateur photographers. The purpose is to collect
a broad spectrum of photographic documentation on Nepali ethnic groups,
festivals and religious holidays, local geography, history, urban and country
life, maps, musical instruments – to name a few socio-cultural interests– and
the cumulative effect is a very impressive peek at a Nepal that you won’t find
in tour guides. Videos and valuable links are also included. Anyone interested
in Nepali culture should visit his visual collection – and revisit – since the
archives keep growing.
