PRI's The World - Geo Quiz Podcast 314
Dog Art in the Himalayas

Our Geo Quiz today takes us to Nepal. We're looking for that Asian country's capital. The bustling city lies at the edge of the Himalayas. Climbing expeditions often gather here before heading off for Everest. We'll introduce you to a Californian art collector who discovered local artists here, and now pays them to paint portraits of dogs. We'll explain, when you name Nepal's capital.

The World's Geo Quiz tests your knowledge of world geography, and introduces you to fascinating people and places around the globe. The World is a US-based international news and analysis program co-produced by the BBC World Service, Public Radio International, and WGBH Boston.



The World is a co-production of the BBC World Service, Public Radio International, and WGBH Radio Boston.
