03 AUGUST 2015 - KATHMANDU, NEPAL: Smoke from the cremation ghats drifts over the Bagmati River at Pashupatinath, a complex of important Hindu temples in Kathmandu. The Bagmati River runs through the complex. It is Nepal's most holy river, and this stretch of the river is like Varanasi in India. The river bank is lined with cremation ghats. Many Hindus, from both Nepal and India, make pilgrimages to Pashupatinath. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
