Is that Tibet or Kathmandu?


Is that Tibet or Kathmandu?, originally uploaded by andycarvin.

I just took this screenshot of the WashingtonPost.com homepage. The caption for the photo seems to suggest it's of monks protesting in remote parts of Tibet, but that totally looks like Bodnath Stupa in Kathmandu, Nepal.

Here's a pic I took of Bodnath in 1996:

Bodnath Temple, Kathmandu

Is it just me or is the Washington Post photo just completely mislabeled?
