Introducing Hetauda
The bustling town of Hetauda marks the junction between the flat Mahendra Hwy and the steep, spectacular Tribhuvan Hwy. From here, a Heath-Robinson cableway carries cement and gravel uphill from the Terai to satisfy Kathmandu's insatiable appetite for construction. There isn't any great reason to stop here except to change buses, but the locals are friendly and the town is known for its brassware, particularly the brass gaagri pots that locals use to store water.
