A tourist woman in front of her room in a hotel along a trekking trail in western mountain, Nepal

Size: 1024×694

A tourist wearing blue long skirt stands in front of a door of her hotel room in Kaagbeni, Nepal. The house is mud plastered on the sides and also has a roof of thick mud.

It rains very rarely in this region. It is cold and rather dry most of the time. Heavy wind is common occurrence. Mud-roofs and walls keep the house cool when it is hot outside and keep warm when it is cold outside.
