Prayer flags strung from the Great Stupa of Boudhanath snap in the wind on an afternoon in May.

The Great Stupa, one of the holiest pilgrimage sites in Tibetan Buddhism, is located in the Boudha area of Kathmandu, Nepal. Dated at up to 1500 years old, it remains at the center of daily life in the area.
