Overview
Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal is a gathering place for all the tourists after their arrival. Most of the visitors dust themselves up to sightsee the Kathmandu valley. 7 UNESCO heritage sites are considered must-see spots, as they carry both religious and historical importance. Each temple and stupa signifies a glorious history of the city as well as the nation. Pashupatinath and Changunarayan, a heavenly place for the Hindus, and Swyambunath, a holy place for Buddhists are enlisted by UNESCO for their artistry and significance. Moreover, Kathmandu Durbar Square, Bhaktapur Durbar Square and Patan Durbar Square promulgate the history of our nation during the Malla Dynasty. Apart from these heritages, the capital has plenty of other places to seduce the incomers. Such as Bouddha, Central Zoo, Dharahara and so on. This city also divulges local arts and crafts along with the unique cuisines that are native to our homeland. Some may recognize this city as the “city of temples”.

Kathmandu Day Tour
We begin our Kathmandu day tour at 9:00 am when we pick you up from your hotel in Kathmandu. We then proceed on our trip with an expert local tour guide. First, we visit the Swayambhunath Stupa which is a very popular Buddhist temple among pilgrims and others alike. The temple has several statues and pictures of Lord Buddha. Moreover, there is also a temple devoted to Saraswati – the Hindu Goddess of learning. So, this temple is essentially a fusion of Buddhism and Hinduism.
Our next destination is Kathmandu Durbar Square. The place was the royal residence of the Malla kings in the 17th century. There are numerous temples, courtyards, and architectural constructions that reflect the culture of medieval times.
Now we travel towards Bouddhanath Stupa as we continue our Kathmandu Day Tour. Notably, the Buddhist monastery is an ideal destination to experience the Buddhist culture. With a height of 36-m, it is one of the biggest stupas in South Asia. The area also hosts numerous restaurants where we’ll have our lunch.
Finally, our last destination is probably the most significant Hindu heritage of Nepal; the Pashupatinath Temple. The temple is believed to have been built in the 5th century and redesigned later by the Malla kings. However, the sanctity of the site dates back to thousands of years ago when a Shiva Lingam was found there.
Our Kathmandu day tour concludes with the Pashupatinath temple. We will then ride back to our hotels before nightfall.
