Back to Radisson Hotel, Kathmandu - Part 2

The typical weather in Kathmandu is fair, not-too-hot nor too-cold...
it was just nice during my trip there on last month
clear skies and windy....
minus the chaotic street traffic...it is actually a cool place to be...much cooler than M'sia...and the air is fresher as this place is located at high altitud
back to the hotel...i enjoyed my stay at this new wing, mainly bcoz the facilities are modern and of course...NEW ;-)
it is somewhat a contrast to the old wing...which looks abit dull and outdate in design, but well, that isn't my concern as long as the basic necessities are provided
here's the view from my room...
I'd say that Radisson hotel is one of those tall buildings in Lazimpat...and all other buildings are mostly like 5-6 stories high only.
the slums of Kathmandu, as viewed from my hotel room. Well, it might NOT classified as 'slums' yet...but the buildings really look rundown in the entire city.
again, this is a high-density city...the streets are narrow, the buildings are close to each other and their property prices are high (as told by a local)...
I guess i'll need some survival skills if i m to live in such place ;-)
