People have memories that are sparked by many situations. Places often make people remember experiences from the past. Many places hold memories for me: the river, school, hills, mountains, terai, etc. One particular place that reminds me of my childhood is Manechauka bazaar in Tanahun District. Manechauka bazaar is located near my house. It is very special to me for many reasons. I learned to enjoy the beauty of nature there. The cool streams- Naudi Khola and Paudi Khola- taught me how to swim. Trees and rocks over there taught me to climb up and down the hills.
The school, Shree Tribhuvan Secondary School, taught me to read and write. People living there taught me to adjust myself in a society of total harmony. This very special place is situated in the northern part of Tanahun district. It is peacefully located on the lap of Khalte and Ulyhahar in Rupakot Village Development Committee. The neighbouring district, Lamjung, surrounds it in the North and Sabadi Khola in the west. The beautiful green forest adds beauty to this place.
The pure natural drinking water of these streams is another salient feature of Manechauka. This bazaar is unique for a variety of reasons. People from different castes and religions are happily and peacefully living there. Everybody respects each other. They enjoy many different cultural programmes. They respect all occupations. Professional farming has also become a part of people living there. Not only this, emphasizing the significance of education, they have established a school and a campus in Manechauka. It has really helped people get higher education whilst living in their homes. In addition to these facilities, people are enjoying electricity, telephones and the Internet services there.
Thus, Manechauka is a place of beauty, harmony and peace. It always reminds me how to survive and get other people to survive in the society where I live. When I see people respecting each other, it brings me back to the memory of my childhood. Additionally, it has taught me to enjoy and live in multicultural society sharing about and caring about each other’s culture and religion.
