STORYLINE
Perched on a hilltop, the blue-rimmed eyes of Kathmandu's gold-spired Swayambhunath Stupa have long stared silently across this sprawling city nestled in the Himalayan foothills.
But since Nepal was shattered by a mammoth earthquake a week ago, those eyes have gazed upon a nation in mourning - and on a microcosm of its despair inside the ancient temple itself.
Swayambhunath, which dates back to the 5th century, is one of at least 68 cultural heritage sites in Nepal that were damaged by the tremor, according to UNESCO, the UN cultural heritage organisation, citing preliminary figures from the Department of Archaeology.
That's nearly 80 percent of historic landmarks in seven monument zones that have been declared World Heritage Sites in the Kathmandu Valley alone.
Few would compare the loss of Nepal's historic treasures to the massive human misery wrought by the magnitude-7.8 quake, which claimed more than 7,000 lives, damaged more than a million homes and displaced nearly 3 million people.
