An excellent downhill hike from the hilltop takes you to the small township of Changu Narayan temple-one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Nepal. One of the best viewpoints situated just thirty-two kilometers from Kathmandu valley, Nagarkot (2195m) offers an astonishing Himalayan panorama from Dhaulagiri (8163m) to the west to Mt. Everest (8848.86m) in the west, eye- popping views of lush greeneries of Shivapuri National Park, wonderful ethnic communities, Kathmandu valley, beautiful terraced farms, rhododendron hills, religious shrines. Famous as one of the best viewpoints for sunrise in Nepal, Nagarkot offers the mesmerizing view of the first rays of the sun over entire mountain massifs! It looks gleaming when the yellowish rays of the sun kiss the snow-clad peaks. The sunrise and the sun's last rays over the Himalayas also looked glorious from this viewpoint. The journey to Nagarkot-Changu Narayan hike begins and finishes in Kathmandu. Early in the morning, we pick you up from your hotel and drive eastward, following the way to Bhaktapur Durbar Square. Leaving it, we follow the Bhaktapur-Nagarkot road reaching the hilltop of Nagarkot. Our vehicle leaves us just 10m below the prominent vantage spot. From there, we take a short hike to the watchtower.

    Nepalese Vet J. 34: 95-100 STATUS OF BRUCELLOSIS IN DAIRY CATTLE OF KAPILVASTU AND BHAKTAPUR DISTRICTS OF NEPAL B. Ghimire1, S. Thapa Chhetri2 and D. R. Khanal3* 1Asia Network for Sustainable Agriculture Bioresources (ANSAB), Kathmandu 2Agriculture and Forestry University, Rampur, Chitwan 3Animal Health Research Division, Nepal Agricultural Research Council, Lalitpur (*email: [email protected]) ABSTRACT Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease that causes abortion in dairy cattle. To find out its status, serological tests were conducted, during June-July 2013, in 48 sera samples from dairy cattle (23 from Kapilvastu and 25 from Bhaktapur districts) having the recent history of abortion. Out of 48 samples 6 (12.5%) were positive on Rose Bengal Plate Test. Among 6 positive samples, 2 (8.69%) were from Kapilvastu and 4 (16%) from Bhakhtapur. Considering the positive cases of brucellosis in the dairy pocket areas and its threat of transmission to other animals and human, a suitable preventive and control measures including the regular test and segregation of sero-positive animals, effective quarantine, legislative measures and awareness programs for farmers, veterinarian, technicians and stakeholders are recommended. Keywords: abortion, brucella, cattle, rose bengal plate test, zoonosis INTRODUCTION Brucellosis is one of the most widespread bacterial zoonotic diseases of cattle, buffalo, swine, goats, sheep, dogs and human, resulting into tremendous economic losses in endemic regions. In human, it causes Malta or Mediterranean fever (Godfroid et al., 2005). It is caused by gram- negative coccobacilli of the genus Brucella that contains a group of very closely related bacteria. The first member of the group, Brucella melitensis, affects primarily sheep and goats.
