Itinerary

Kathmandu Durbar Square

2 hours Admission not included

Kathmandu Durbar Square, once the royal palace of the Malla kings and later the Shah dynasty, dates back to the 12th century. This historical complex served as the seat of power and witnessed coronations and state ceremonies. The square features exquisite Newari architecture, with intricately carved wooden windows, pagoda-style temples, and iconic structures like Hanuman Dhoka Palace, Kumari Ghar (Home of the Living Goddess), and Taleju Temple. Visitors can immerse themselves in centuries of art, politics, and culture.
Swaymbhunath

one hour Admission not included

Swayambhunath Stupa is believed to have been founded over 2,000 years ago, making it one of the oldest religious sites in Nepal. According to legend, the stupa emerged spontaneously from a lotus flower in a primordial lake that once covered the Kathmandu Valley. This sacred Buddhist site features a gleaming white dome, gilded spire, and all-seeing eyes of Buddha. Surrounded by smaller shrines and inhabited by playful monkeys, it offers spiritual calm and panoramic views of the valley.
Pashupatinath Temple

one hour Admission not included

Pashupatinath Temple, dedicated to Lord Shiva, dates back to 400 A.D., making it one of the oldest and most sacred Hindu temples in the world. It was rebuilt by King Bhupatindra Malla in the 17th century after earlier structures were destroyed. Situated along the Bagmati River, it is a site of daily rituals, cremation ceremonies, and religious festivals like Maha Shivaratri. Though non-Hindus cannot enter the main sanctum, the surrounding shrines and ghats offer a deep cultural and spiritual experience.
Boudhanath Stupa

one hour Admission not included

Boudhanath Stupa was built in the 5th century after the Mughal invasions, becoming a center for Tibetan Buddhism after refugees fled to Nepal. It is one of the largest stupas in the world and a key pilgrimage site. The stupa’s massive mandala base, topped by a white dome and golden spire with Buddha’s watchful eyes, draws monks and devotees for daily kora. Surrounded by monasteries and Tibetan shops, Boudhanath radiates peace, spirituality, and vibrant cultural life.
