Itinerary

Day 1

Your adventure begins with a comfortable pick-up from your hotel. A friendly guide will greet you and provide you with some information about the day ahead. You'll be driven in a private vehicle, ensuring a smooth ride between the various sightseeing destinations.

  1. Swayambhunath, known as the "Monkey Temple," is a significant Buddhist stupa located atop a hill in the Kathmandu Valley. The stupa is famous for its large eyes of Buddha, symbolizing the all-seeing nature of wisdom. It offers stunning panoramic views of Kathmandu Valley and is surrounded by prayer flags, shrines, and statues. The area is home to many monkeys, adding to its charm and unique atmosphere.
  2. Boudhanath is one of the largest stupas in Nepal and a major center for Tibetan Buddhism. Located in eastern Kathmandu, it features a massive dome and 108 smaller Buddha images. The stupa is surrounded by a vibrant Tibetan market where visitors can shop for traditional items. Pilgrims often walk around the stupa, spinning prayer wheels and chanting mantras in a practice known as a kora.
  3. Pashupatinath, located on the banks of the Bagmati River, is one of the holiest Hindu temples in Nepal, dedicated to Lord Shiva. The temple’s pagoda-style architecture is remarkable, and it serves as a major pilgrimage site. Visitors can witness Hindu cremation rituals at the river’s ghats, where the deceased are traditionally cremated. While non-Hindus cannot enter the main temple, the surrounding area offers a fascinating look at local religious practices.
  4. Kathmandu Durbar Square, located in the heart of the city, is a historical site that once served as the royal palace complex. The square is an architectural marvel, showcasing traditional Newar design with temples, palaces, and statues. Key landmarks include the Hanuman Dhoka Palace and the Taleju Temple. The square is bustling with life, with street vendors, performers, and locals adding to its vibrant atmosphere.
