Kathmandu, May 28
Google, the world’s number one search engine, has paid its respect to Nepal on the occasion of its historic Republic Day.
Celebrating the occasion, Google has displayed Danphe (Lophophorus impejanus), Nepal’s national bird, in its homepage. It’s called Google Doodle.
In its homepage, Google states wishing Nepal a Happy Republic Day:
Today’s doodle shows Nepal’s national bird, the Danphe, or the Himalayan Monal. The male pheasant is brilliantly plumed with iridescent colors highlighting the beauty of Nepal. The female, a mild brown, represents its constancy and warmth. Similarly, Nepal is a nation of vibrancy and contrast, counting among its features both the world’s highest and most unforgiving peak and the well-preserved and magical temples and shrines of Kathmandu.
“The landscape is an appropriate metaphor for the history of a nation in which, despite great upheaval, peace prevails. We hope today’s doodle by Alyssa Winans brings pride and joy to the people of Nepal,” Google states.
