The Indian tectonic plate has been slamming into the Eurasian plate for millions of years. It's how the Himalayan mountains were formed, and the cause of these earthquakes.

I believe that is the Patan Museum to the left and the fountains below are littered with debris. Hopefully the museum remained intact as it had items over a thousand years old.

How long before we hear about a well publicized mega million dollar donation from the Clinton Foundation to aid this area?
