Kathmandu
The Kathmandu Valley, with Patan to the south and Bhaktapur, hosts 7 out of 10 UNESCO world heritage sites in Nepal. There is a reason why Kathmandu stands out as one of the most historic cities in the world. This capital city includes hundreds of temples, shrines, and stupas; that’s why Kathmandu is well known as the “city of temples”. A cultural hub, the capital of Nepal, has something entirely different to offer.
Chaos characterizes the city-smells, and action. And of course, one sees a unique side of Nepal for an excursion. Third-century Durbar square, enclosed with courtyards and temples is where the kings were crowned and legitimized in the town. Planning on visiting the Kathmandu Valley, then you got it all.
