Monsoon clouds behind a field of mustard in the Kathmandu valley on the sides of Chobar gorge
This photo of terraced fields above Chobar gorge south of the Kathmandu valley was taken in October 2004.

A combination of warmth sunlight and water together with fertile seabed soil allows for several harvests each year
