In a play of light and shadow, this cobbled alleyway in Panauti takes on a whole new dimension in black and white. The absence of colour highlights the texture of the ancient stones, the contrast of the brick buildings and the timeless silence of this place steeped in history.
Old houses with carved wooden roofs line the narrow passageway, witnesses to a past when Newar architecture shaped Nepal's urban landscape. The irregular cobblestones, worn by the passage of time and the footsteps of the inhabitants, tell the story of the city's soul. In this alleyway frozen in time, the black and white accentuates the poetry of everyday life, bringing out every detail: the patina of the walls, the elongated shadows and the soft light filtering through the roofs. An invitation to contemplate, where the present and the past come together in silent harmony.
