Nepal - Sundial

Dear Friends
I have to thank our Nepali guide Suhresh Battarai for having shown us one of the few sundials in Kathmandu. The sundial is located near the Gantha Ghar (Clock Tower), in the court of the first occidental school built by the English in Kathmandu at the beginning of the last century. On the basis of the sundial is a dedication terminating with a Latin citation reciting that it is a good action to sacrifice oneself for the native land. The following images show you the details of the sundial.
Salutations
Giancarlo
