- This video clearly shows the footage of Nepal from 1970s. If you are age of 70+, and been to Kathmandu Nepal, i am sure you have lived your Golden Age of your life. Back than in Nepal Marijuana (Ganja)(Weed), Hasish were all legal.
Freak Street, Kathmandu Nepal:
Presently known as Old Freak Street which is in Nepali called as Jhochhen Tole झोछेँ टोल is located in heart of Kathmandu, Nepal. This ancient street was named Freak Street referring to the hippie trail of the 1960s and 1970s.
Hippie Trail:
The hippie trail (also the overland[1]) is the name given to the overland journey taken by members of the hippie subculture and others from the mid-1950s to the late 1970s[2] between Europe and South Asia, mainly through Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, India (including Jammu and Kashmir) and Nepal.

It's a beautiful film you have made, I am in Nepal right now in Pokhara, lived in Kathmandu for days and now it's nothing like old, i iwsh i could live the way you have experianced here, thank you for sharing, I make films too do check out sometime if you get time :)
'It's the place not the drugs that draws them here' - That's a good one! I was there a bit late in the day - May-June 1976 - and hardly ever met a (western) soul who wasn't pulling on a hashish-baccy packed chillum, pipe, or toking a nice fat
juicy number. Bom Shankar, Bom Boulay!
Visit once again! Today, some areas like Thamel still preserves the hippie era spirit.
in 1976,it was already to late
@@MrZacani too late? Different, most surely but not all that much according to a couple of old (now deceased) friends of mine who'd spent quite some time there at the very end of the 60s into the early 70s. Too late comes with a vengeance in the following decades. Going by all the sorry RUclips vids etc. etc. out there I can't imagine wanting to go to Nepal or the Indian Himalayas now. Like everywhere it's another world.
Wondering Scot how long you stayed in Kathmandu vs traveling outside the city to surrounding areas. I'm sure that even back then the city was busy and crowded. Did you go to Pokhara?
@@dankdispensaryrecreational1274 Can't remember exactly how long I was in Kathmandhu - 3 weeks or thereabouts (some parts, and restaurants, chai shops, etc, pretty filthy, but apart from that excellent all round - just don't get sick), then to Pokhara, went walking up in the hills - but without a permit. A young guy from outside Pokhara took me. We bypassed a number of village checkpoints and got as far as - again I can't remember the name of the place off the top of my head. Anyway, there were spectacular views of Machapuchare and Hiunchuli up ahead. As it turned out a party of police were coming in the opposite direction bringing back the body of a Japanese freak or tourist who had died in mysterious circumstances further along the Annapurna trail. When the guy in charge saw that I didn't have a trekking permit he flipped and proceeded to beat the shit out of the young Nepalese guy guiding me. it was a very ugly scene. I would have had to go back with the bastards to Pokhara but I'd hurt my leg a little earlier in the day and couldn't walk properly. They were in a real hurry to get the body back to civilization so left me there to recuperate, but taking my guide with them. I stayed on for a couple of days recovering, nicely sustained by a few powerful substances which was just as well since the food was truly awful - I ate something described as 'porridge' and almost immediately threw up the lot plus whatever else was in my stomach all over the place.. Ultimately back to Pokara and on to Kathmandhu for a few more days, I may have well overstayed my visa - can't remember. Caught the bus over the mountains to Rauxaul (however you spell it) and continued on in India across the plains. Way too hot, Varanasi like an oven at 2am in the morning, was early July '76, stayed a few days (but would have loved to stay longer except for that heat) so then up into the Indian Himalayas, - the mini train to Simla followed by some pretty hair raising bus rides up to the Kulu Valley, then Manikaran (which I see has long been totally and utterly fucked up, by the hordes and the massive incursions required by the generation of hydroelectric power), and Manali which was good when I visited, but very wet. Spent almost 3 months in Manikaran which was even more laid back then than Manaili - well into the rubbing season. An extremely good, no great, trip. No electricity, hardly any food to eat (dahl, chappatis and the sweet barfi, and tea) - that's about it generally friendly, cool people both locals and foreigners, exceptional charas. Like everywhere things have changed, naturally enough, out of all recognition, and not for the better. I realize I was extremely fortunate to be born in another time, in a very tolerant middle class family and had the opportunity to travel before everywhere started resembling everywhere else. Cheers
People seemed so calm back then
Ya because there were no mobiles and laptops not even proper Televisions in nepal if some had TVs it was black and white...

Thanks a lot for posting this. So cool to see the footage. Lol, what a piece of journalism smearing the hippie. First off, that is not a pound of ganja! What a square.
Oh ... this commentator is a gem, ha. ... & Lovely footage indeed.
Such a contrast to today where they are shooting fenty and H, smoking crack. And spend their time pros or b and e to supply their habit

Kathmandu C1976, a lot of serious culture seekers of the Himalaya, getting as best they could into a magnificent experience. And then...
I want to go back
I mixed the weed with tobacco and licked together a pyramid shaped rolling paper with 6 individual papers. Then I had this huge joint tithe size of a cat ok slight exaggeration but one last step, rubbing that tar-like hash oil pall over the outside of the joint.
Vibe check at 1:33 in left ear

“Black power leaders on thr way to train as guerrillas in China”
