Nepali comes in handy in the city we're searching for in our Geo Quiz today. It's the bustling capital of Nepal that lies at the edge of the Himalayas. Climbing expeditions often mobilize here before heading off for Mt. Everest. The older section of the city still has Buddhist and Hindu temples and palaces dating back to the 17th century. They draw plenty of visitors like this woman from California:

"You hear Tibetan spoken just as often here as you do Nepali. The women wear beautiful chubas and the men have their beautiful hats, and it's a beautiful part of the world."

There's also beautiful folk art. For example there's an artist who commissions other local artists to paint portraits of dangerous dogs....don't worry we'll explain.
