Cette petite ville médiévale pas très loin de Katmandou nous a bien plu. Beaucoup d’artisans y travaillent, potiers, tailleurs de pierres, sculpteurs de bois, peintres……et aussi des fabricants de Ju Ju d’eau, le meilleur lait caillé du Népal. Ils sont très connus pour cette délicieuse préparation qui est présenté dans de jolis pots en terre cuite qui lui donne un goût spécial.
We liked this little medieval town not far from Kathmandu. Many craftsmen work there, potters, stonemasons, wood carvers, painters …… and also manufacturers of Ju Ju, the best curds in Nepal. They are very well known for this delicious preparation which is presented in pretty terracotta pots which gives it a special taste.
