Faces of: RED Nepal

In many cultures, the color RED is reserved for Love, Strength, Power & Royalty.
But in , it is ever present.
You’ll find this breathtaking hue thickly pressed on the foreheads of locals as a religious blessing.
Painted on ancient wooden homes.
Temporarily Stained on women lips.
It's the color of hundreds of spices that fill the air with exotic aromas.
And it dominates many of the delicate fabrics worn by stylish, young & old sun-kissed Nepalis.

Walk the streets of Kathmandu. when the sunset bathes the city in gold at dusk,
the striking reds will be a feast for your eyes.
