British Prince Harry In Nepal

 

March 24, 2016: British Prince Harry had come to Nepal to mark the 200 years of Nepal-Britain diplomatic relations for a week but after a week, Prince Harry found out that he needed to stay a few more days to complete his mission in Nepal. So, he extended six days for staying in Nepal.

 

During the six-day period Prince Harry would cooperate with the British NGO called Team Rubicon, to help the community in the remote western Nepal rebuild a school damaged by the devastating quakes in 2015.

 

Prince Harry had found Nepal so magnificently beautiful he urged the people of the world to visit Nepal and enjoy the unique beauty of the country and the greetings of the ever smiling Nepalese people even in the catastrophe of quakes and the undeclared blockade.

 

He was fascinated by the world heritage Patan Durbar Square, so beautiful Bardiya National Park that has been the example for the nature conservation, and rafting in a river.

 

Prince Harry enjoyed playing with colors on the occasion of celebrating the spring festival called ‘Holi’. He smeared faces of others with red power while he himself got smeared his face with red power. He behaved so humanly Nepalese felt Prince Harry was one of them.

 

He had the exceptional experiences in how different communities of Nepal welcomed him. The Nevah community of Patan greeted Prince Harry by five young ladies dressed in the traditional attires offering bouquets. The Gurung community in the west greeted him applying a white tika on his forehead, and garlanding him. White tika is the symbol of peace. He had kept his hands clasping at his chest for returning the greetings.

 

He visited the Gurkha Service center at Lamachaur in Pokhara, and paid homage to the Gurkhas that had lost the lives fighting for the British in Afghanistan and Iraq. He appreciated the services of Gurkhas that had fought and gave their valuable lives in fighting the past two world wars, and recently the Falkland, Iraq and Afghanistan wars.
