Om Ganesha!
A couple of weeks ago, Tristan sent me an email: "Are there any Ganeshas there?" In a word, yes. Most of these were just randomly spotted on the street, and most are 6 to 12 inches high.
Without further ado, for Tristan and all the other Ganesha fans out there, ganapataye namaha!

Above the entrance to the temple at Pashupatinath, an important Hindu pilgrimage site
In repoussé on a door
Even in Bhoudanath, a major Tibetan Buddhist temple
Gates on Kantipath in Kathmandu
Even on menus:
