Shivratri and Sadhu at Pashupatinath
Sadhus: Hindu holy men flock to Pashupatinath Temple in Kathmandu during Mahashivratri festival. Hindus across the world are celebrating Mahashivratri, or Shiva's night festival believed to be the day when Shiva got married. Here's some photos I have captured at Pashupatinath Temple this morning.
