Reconstructing history in Kathmandu
"A 16th-century temple dedicated to Lord Vishnu that was reduced to rubble in the 2015 earthquake, restoration here has involved salvaging even the smallest fragments and painstakingly reassembling original elements wherever possible. Under the guidance of heritage teams, the rebuilding process has resembled solving a giant jigsaw puzzle and has sometimes required complete reconstructions when damage was too severe." - Delle Chan
