Our tour guide will pick you up in the early morning and give you a brief introduction before you go behind the wheel.
The tour guide will give you a thorough rundown of the main attractions in the Kathmandu Valley. We are also extremely open to changing the itinerary or hearing about other locations you would want to see.
The locations that you will visit during the day are listed below:
Durbar Square in Kathmandu
The Katmandu Durbar Square has a fascinating past and is surrounded by enigmatic stories. The ancient palace, which bears the name of the Hindu monkey deity Hanuman, once served as the venue for the coronation rituals of the Nepali kings.
The statue of King Pratap Mall, the historic Jagannath temple, the Taleju temple from 1549 AD, the stone figure of Kal Bhairav, the Big Bell and Big Drum, and the fascinating scene of Hindu Lord Shiva and Parvati looking out of a window are some of the treasures that have been preserved.
Don’t miss the exquisitely carved wooden balconies and window screens of the living Goddess Kumari’s house, a virgin maiden signifying a divinity. The impressive Kasthamandap temple, which is located nearby, is thought to have been constructed from a single tree trunk and is the reason the city was given the name “Katmandu.”
Square Patan Durbar
Patan Durbar Square has many notable historical markers. This is one of the town’s most popular locations. On the edges of Patan Durbar Square are Patan Durbar and Krishna Mandir.
In observance of Lord Shree Krishna’s birthday, “Krishna Asthami,” a unique ceremonial event is held. In Nepal, it ranks third in terms of population, behind Kathmandu and Bhaktapur.
This city is well-known for Jatra and Newari culture. A popular dish in this city is “Matka kulfi.” Delicious traditional Newari dishes like Choila, Bara, Yomari, Samaya Baji, egg verities, and many more are available for you to savour.
Temple of Pashupatinath
Nearly 6 km to the east of Kathmandu is the Pashupatinath temple. Hindus mostly come here for religious purposes. The view of the temple next to the Bagmati River is stunning.
Even though it is the home of Lord Shiva Mahadev, all Hindu devotees make at least one pilgrimage to this temple during their lifetime. It would be like ignoring dessert after a wonderful meal if you visit Pashupati and do not achieve “Evening Aarati.”
Anyone is mesmerised by the priests reciting Lord Shiva’s mantra during Aarati. The most pleasant scene is when sadhus with an ash-scrubbed body, a Rudraksha garland, and a shiva hymn recite welcome to people of all religions.
The Pashupatinath Temple has additional temples all around it. Surya Narayan, Budhanilkantha, Unmatta Bhairav, Surya Narayan, Hanuman shrine, 184 Shivalinga, and many more are among the shrines surrounding Pashupatinath.
The Bouddhanath Stupa
One of the most important and distinctively constructed stupas in the world is the Bouddhanath Stupa. After Swayambhunath, it is regarded as the second most sacred monastery for Buddhists.
Despite being a Buddhist monument, entry is not restricted based on one’s religion. It’s also known as a tiny Swayambhunath and has a similar appearance to Swayambhunath. The Stupa’s flawless eyes, sometimes referred to as “wisdom eyes,” are a symbol of Lord Buddha’s omniscience.
The red, blue, and white colours of the Nepali flag are reflected in those eyes. The nose of the curving question mark between those eyes is the Nepali symbol “१,” which stands for unity.
Stupa of Swayambhunath (Monkey Temple)
Known as the “Monkey Temple,” Swayambhunath Stupa is about 2,500 years old. Swayambhu literally means “self-created” or “self-existent.” Buddhist monks travel from all over the world to this stupa because it is the oldest and most popular.
The three enormous sculptures of Lord Buddha can be seen from the main entrance gate, which is located on the west. You can exit via the stairs or in another direction. You will undoubtedly reach spiritual enlightenment by climbing the 365 stairs, which offer a glimpse of the Sleeping Buddha monument.
You can see a view of Kathmandu city from the front side of the stupa. There is a modest man-made fountain and pond on the western side of the Stupa. It’s customary flipping a coin, and if it lands on a dish, it’s considered fortunate.
