Destination Overview & Experience
Kathmandu, the historic capital of Nepal, rests in a lush high-altitude valley surrounded by Himalayan peaks. Renowned as a living museum of Hindu and Buddhist spiritual heritage, Kathmandu captivates travelers with its ancient pagoda temples, golden stupas, and intricately carved wooden palaces.
The city boasts seven UNESCO World Heritage sites within the valley. Boudhanath Stupa, one of the world's largest spherical stupas, exudes serene spiritual energy as Tibetan monks walk its circular perimeter. Perched high on a hill, Swayambhunath (the Monkey Temple) offers panoramic views over Kathmandu Valley.
Walking through the ancient Durbar Squares of Kathmandu, Patan, and Bhaktapur reveals centuries of Newari craftsmanship. Kathmandu also serves as the international gateway for Himalayan mountain trekking, Mount Everest flight sightseeing, and spiritual retreats.
