One-day tour in Kathmandu, explore the ancient and mysterious Nepal~


🔶🔶🔶Kathmandu is a very exotic city with a strong religious culture and unique humanistic charm. Here you can visit ancient temples and feel the power of faith, then walk around the bustling streets and experience the local life.

🎏My itinerary
■ Monkey Temple (Swayambhunath Temple): Located on the top of a mountain west of Kathmandu, it is named after the large number of monkeys. From here you can overlook the scenery of Kathmandu city.
🎟️Ticket price: 500 rupees

■ Boudhanath Stupa (Bodha Stupa): It is the largest round stupa in the world and the center of Tibetan Buddhism in Nepal. The huge white dome and the golden spire, walk clockwise around the pagoda, turn the prayer wheels, and feel the tranquility and sacredness of Buddhism.
🎟️Ticket price: 400 rupees

■Pashupatinath Temple: Go to Pashupatinath Temple at 5pm. It is one of the most important temples in Hinduism and a famous crematorium in Nepal. Here, you can see the unique Hindu cremation ceremony and learn about the local culture of life and death.
🎟️Ticket price: 700 rupees (watch the Ganges Night Festival after entering)

■Ganges Night Festival (on the banks of Bagmati River): Visit the sacred Ganges Night Festival in the evening and feel the awe and worship of the Ganges by Hinduism.

■Thamiel District: Return to Thamel District to find food. This is the tourist center of Kathmandu and also a neighborhood with a relatively concentrated shopping and food scene.

🌟Notes
1. The one-day tour is limited, and prices in Nepal are low, so it is recommended to take a taxi for the entire trip.
2. There are many handicraft shops around the Boudhanath Pagoda, which are worth visiting.
3. The Ganges Night Festival is a must-see. It is the only place you can see it in India. It starts at 18:50. It is recommended to arrive early and choose a good viewing position.
