The prince flew to the Leurani village, northwest of the capital Kathmandu, today where he spend time with the villagers dancing and later feasting with the family of Mangali Tamang, 86-year-old widow of a former soldier.
Harry is on a five-day trip to Nepal where he already met the president, prime minister, attended an official function to mark 200 years of friendship between two countries. The highlight of his trip was visiting the earthquake damaged areas and highlighting reconstruction efforts.
