PBS Program Nova, caught my eye last night. Mustang a province of Nepal? Not sure of that, as they highlighted the King, whose family has been in the same dwelling for centuries. Map indicated it was part of Nepal.
Hour long program on holy cities, many refugees from Tibet. Buddist wall paintings and temples were in disrepair. Gave overview of restoring and repairing by the old ways.
They brought in Newari craftsman for the reconstruction of some of the wooden figures.
Had some detail in dealing with the local culture. Preparing the prayer flags, etc.
I enjoyed it.
