Explanation:

• 'Kathmandu' is an excerpt from the 'Heaven Lake' travelogue of Vikram Seth telling of a long travel from from China to India via Tibet and Nepal. This extract explains the period he spent visiting two temples in Nepal: the Pashupatinath and the Baudhnath Stupa, the most holy shrines for Hindus and Buddhists. Not only does he describe the ambience inside such temples, he also documents his impressions of the atmosphere and contrasts the hectic activity of the Hindu temple to that of the tranquility in the  Buddhist stupa.
