Nepal reopens World Heritage sites 7 weeks after quake

Photo taken June 15, 2015, shows the historic Bhaktapur Durbar Square in the Bhaktapur district neighboring Kathmandu, one of the UNESCO World Heritage sites in the Kathmandu Valley that Nepal announced the same day it was reopening for tourists. Around seven weeks have passed since a deadly quake killed 8,787 people and damaged hundreds of cultural monuments and some key trekking trails in the country, where tourism employs about a million people.
