Kathmandu – The Capital of Culture

Kathmandu, the vibrant capital of Nepal, is the gateway to the Himalayas and a city steeped in history, culture, and spirituality. The city is home to Durbar Square, a UNESCO World Heritage Site filled with palaces, temples, and courtyards dating back centuries. The square is the heart of festivals, processions, and traditional ceremonies. Tourists can also explore Swayambhunath, known as the Monkey Temple, perched atop a hill with panoramic views of the city and a rich Buddhist heritage. Pashupatinath Temple, a sacred Hindu site along the Bagmati River, attracts pilgrims from all over the world. Kathmandu’s streets are a vibrant maze of colorful markets, traditional handicrafts, and local eateries serving momo dumplings and Newari cuisine. The city perfectly blends ancient architecture with modern cafés, boutique hotels, and art galleries, making it a must-visit for travelers seeking both culture and adventure. A short trip from Kathmandu will take you to Bhaktapur, another medieval city with exquisite temples and pottery squares.
