Monsoonal rainfall contributed to the flooding of the Bhote Koshi River at the Rasuwagadhi border of Nepal and China, damaging the dry port and destroying a key bridge. Thankfully, Timure town is above the river. Here are two photos I took there last month.

Follow up to my last post about maps on the sides of trucks at the Sino-Nepalese borders. This one is painted over. China is a bit sensitive about unauthorized cartography… Who knew?
