KATHMANDU, Nov 15: Saudi Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal interestingly marked his ongoing visit with quirky strolls along the streets of the capital in the stillness of midnight and amid hustle-bustle in the evening.

The richest person of Gulf region had walked out of the Hyatt Regency Hotel at around 11 PM, a couple of hours after he landed at the Tribhuvan International Airport, and visited the Bouddha Stupa before reaching Jorpati on foot.



Later on Sunday evening, he again set out for another round of walk along the streets. This time, southward towards Old Baneshwor. Both the times, he returned on foot.



Talal was trailed by both his personnel security staffers and the cops as he ambled at ease. "We provided complete security for the VIP´s movements," said Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Govinda Pariyar, chief of Metropolitan Police Circle Boudhha.



"He sounds a very simple guy. He also seemed to be very perceptive about surroundings as he walked along. I think he enjoyed a lot," said an official involved in security arrangements.
