Location Tibet. Film The Shadow.
The temple, which you see at the beginning of the film, is not situated in Tibet, but in Nepal.
The staircase, the entrance of the temple, has the form of a cobra. This is a symbol of Shiva, the Creator and Destroyer. The ‘ONE’ who is far beyond our imagination. On this spot, this temple, the Holy Shiva descends on earth.
It is a very remote place. Even for Nepalese Sherpas it is nearly impossible to come. It takes several weeks, even months to reach this place. Moreover, it is a perilous venture due to the very rough landscape.

I have showed the film to friends in Kathmandu.
They really do not understand how it is possible that this temple has served as a location for the film.
There is not a road, which leads to this place! The airspace above is prohibited for fly movement. Moreover, it is impossible to come by helicopter to the temple because of the strong thermal current and unexpected strong horizontal air movements.
Dozens of actors are participating! What to think about the cameras, all the equipment? Even cars are driving! How it is possible that there are horses? This breed of horses will die after some days on an altitude of 6000 meters!
How is it possible that this all has been at this very holy place?
I know it.
You also, when you have red this book!
