12 MARCH 2017 - KATHMANDU, NEPAL: A Tibetan Buddhist woman prays around a prayer wheel at a monastery at Boudhanath Stupa. Boudhanath Stupa in the Bouda section of Kathmandu is one of the most revered and oldest Buddhist stupas in Nepal. The area has emerged as the center of the Tibetan refugee community in Kathmandu. On full moon nights thousands of Nepali and Tibetan Buddhists come to the stupa and participate in processions around the stupa. The stupa was heavily damaged in the earthquake of 25 April 2015 but has been repaired with the financial assistance of global Buddhist organizations. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
