What to expect

  1. Kathmandu Durbar Square
    Pass by
    You’ll wander through the historic royal palace square, where kings once ruled and festivals still come to life. You’ll marvel at the detailed woodwork of ancient temples, visit the Hanuman Dhoka Palace Museum, and see the home of the Living Goddess, Kumari. If you’re lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of her at the window during your visit.
  2. Pass by
    Swoyambhunath Stupa (Monkey Temple): You’ll begin your day climbing the steps to this ancient hilltop stupa, where the eyes of Buddha gaze out over the Kathmandu Valley. Surrounded by prayer flags and curious monkeys, this sacred site offers a peaceful atmosphere and spectacular panoramic views. As you circle the stupa spinning prayer wheels, you’ll feel a strong sense of serenity and connection to centuries of devotion.
  3. Pass by
    Pashupatinath Temple: Next, you’ll visit the most sacred Hindu temple in Nepal. Located along the banks of the Bagmati River, this sprawling temple complex honors Lord Shiva and gives you a glimpse into Nepal’s living spiritual traditions. You’ll witness holy sadhus (wandering ascetics), observe cremation rituals from a respectful distance, and explore the ancient shrines that line the riverbanks.
  4. Boudhanath Stupa
    Pass by
    Boudhanath Stupa: As you approach this towering white dome crowned with Buddha’s all-seeing eyes, you’ll be struck by the peaceful, spiritual energy that surrounds it. This is the heart of Tibetan Buddhism in Nepal. You’ll join local pilgrims walking the kora around the stupa, hear the soft chants of monks, and maybe even stop for a cup of butter tea in one of the rooftop cafés with a perfect view of the stupa below.
