The mountains close to Nepal were sometimes seen in clear weather after the rain. In fact, the Darshan of the Himalayas took place for the first time today from his village.”

Ever since the country went into lockdown, following the COVID-19 outbreak, nature has been surprising us regularly. With very few humans out on the streets, there is more space for nature to expand and breathe. From mountain peaks being visible at a distance to flocks of flamingos turning the sky pink, nature is finally getting to reclaim its territory.
