Kathmandu Day tour

We will pick you up from your hotel early in the morning. Then, we would head toward Budhanilkanth Temple. It is a temple dedicated to Lord Vishnu. There, you could see an image of Lord Vishnu sleeping on the water. We will stay there to observe the Nitya puja (the daily worship ritual). You could see that the boys under the age of 16 did all the chants and rituals. After that, we'll return to the hotel for breakfast.

After breakfast, we will head toward Swyambhunath Stupa. It is a great place to observe the entire Kathmandu Valley at a glance. Besides, it is a holy religious site for both Hindus and Buddhists in the Kathmandu valley. It was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1979.

From there, we will go to Kathmandu's Durbar Square. It is also known as Basantapur Durbar Square because of a palace named Basantapur Palace. It is again known as Hanuman Dhoka Square because of the statue of Lord Hanuman. It is still at the entrance of the palace. This site was also listed among the UNESCO World Heritage Sites in 1979. There are several temples, shrines, courtyards, and a palace inside Durbar Square. All of these structures reflect Nepalese art and architecture from various eras. It consists of architectural styles from medieval times, the Shah dynasty, and the Rana Regime. Besides these architectural impressions, you can also find the Kumari House over there. It is the home of the living goddess Kumari. Kumari is considered the living goddess of Nepal. If you get lucky, you might get a glimpse of her while visiting Kumari Ghar.

After Durbar Square, we will go try Newari food. Then, we would head toward the Bauddhanath Stupa. It is the largest stupa in South Asia. There, you will visit other big monasteries.

At last, we will go to the Pashupatinath Temple. It is the Hindu cremation place in Kathmandu. Besides that, it is the most respected temple in Nepal. Pashupatinath is considered the guardian deity of Nepal. It is also one of the four most vital religious sites in Asia, devoted to Lord Shiva. We would be attending the evening aarati over there from the other side of the temple. Note that only Hindus are allowed to enter the temple premises. We will go for dinner and then drop you at your hotel.
