Nepal Crisis: The youth protest in Nepal shook the foundations of power. The Parliament House, Supreme Court, offices of political parties, residences of the Prime Minister and ministers were burnt down. The protesters set fire to Kathmandu's biggest hotel Hilton. The entire hotel was burnt down.Hilton Hotel is considered not just a place of luxury accommodation but a living symbol of Nepal's cultural and architectural heritage. The architecture of this hotel not only symbolizes modernity but also reflects the rich traditions and natural beauty of Nepal.
The hotel's dazzling façade features vertical glass panels inspired by Buddhist prayer flags, giving the building a unique identity. The panels change colour in the daylight, making them a vibrant and dynamic sight. The panels come alive even more after sunset, creating a mesmerising array of colours.
