Nepal is fascinating and I really love the narrator's voice.

[@yghhgy2547]

They should also disclose how all of them ended up there?? Were they smuggled or bought through legal means?

[@kapil4417037]

how they reached foreign museum. research must be done.

[@spiritofzen7022]

Is there a full documentary on this anywhere please?

[@petagonkyi]

Until the overthrow of Monarchy in Nepal, Buddhist were treated as second class as Hinduism believe in Caste. So Buddhist were forbidden to take jobs in govt and were made to do manual labour jobs

[@nathanthing8789]

bullshit

[@TharsyanJaderuby]

Many temples in Nepal are both Hindu and Buddhist temples, and the people there, regardless of any religion they follow, are still visiting both temples.

[@tripgun4878]

How do it ends here N who bring it here

[@maniblawtak990]

Oh

[@hellfarm66]

How did they managed to get all those arts and crafts from Nepal?? Smuggling

[@rahulmagar4004]

240 years of Nepal was not good. May be because of that.

[@aa6eheia156]

​@@rahulmagar4004 yeah Shah dynasty at the beginning was great as it unified the country and secured the territories but later they couldn't progress in any areas or even rule with power for over 100 years due to Rana autocracy. It's republic democracy now and slowly people are getting aware and taking initiations themselves

[@sujangurung3461]

This should be returned to Nepal asap.

[@rahulmagar4004]

Not until Shakyas and Bajracharyas are given the power. No one will return their rights.

[@aa6eheia156]

​​@@rahulmagar4004 yeah.. it is being preserved better there. It shall only be brought back if Nepal government prioritizes in their preservation and promote the original Newari Buddhism which have been suppressed and overshadowed by Tibetan Buddhism in Nepal

[@petagonkyi]

Nepal is between India and Tibet. China is thousand KM away.
