We hope many local and tourists from various places of the world happen to see and enjoy the peace murals during three days from 26 to 28 December as the murals will be displayed open-air in such a central area of the city. Planned site is surrounded by such beautiful historic architecture. A welcome celemony hosted by the Mayor of Kathmandu on 26th and a closing celemony by the Prime Minister on 28th December will both held at the former Palace shown above. Each mural is of 3.5metres high and 7.8metres wide. The size of the mural is as the same size that of Pablo Picassos masterpiece Guernica which was painted in 1937 in commemoration of a small town in Spain which was shattered by bomb during the war.
Children are the leaders of tomorrow.
We trust in their imaginative and creative ability rather than logical thinking of adults. 38 murals from 28 regions of 16 countries have been completed till to date. If these murals are put in a row, it would be about 500 metres long. Approximately 7,000 children have participated in the programme. During the period of five years, so many large scale exhibitions have been held at different locations.
