UNESCO Heritage Sites tour in Kathmandu Valley

The cultural heritage of the Kathmandu Valley is vividly shown by seven groups of monuments and buildings. They display the full range of historic and artistic achievements that have made the valley famous worldwide. Among these, the Hanuman Dhoka Durbar Square in the heart of Kathmandu is notable. Furthermore, it features the extraordinary Kumari Bahal. It is a masterpiece of finely carved wood work without a doubt and the residence of the Living Goddess Kumari.

Similarly, Lalitpur, known as the “City of Beauty,” has Patan Durbar Square. This square is home to the great carved stone Krishna temple. This temple is also a significant Hindu shrine.

Likewise, Bhaktapur Durbar Square, located 14 km east of Kathmandu, is famous for keeping the rich culture and traditions of the Newar people. This makes it one of Nepal’s well kept ancient cities.

Moreover, the hilltop Buddhist stupas of Swayambhunath provide amazing views of the Kathmandu Valley and the Himalayan ranges. This shows religious harmony in Nepal, earning it the title “Monkey Temple.”

Also, the massive Boudhanath stupa acts as a lively Tibetan center. Here, visitors can engage in Tibetan culture and rituals.

Finally, the most sacred Hindu shrine in Nepal is the Pashupatinath temple tour. This temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva and also attracts thousands of travelers each year. They come to honor the temple of the living deity and observe traditional burning ceremonies along the sacred banks of the Bagmati River during the Pashupatinath temple tour.

Furthermore, we’re happy to modify the tour to meet your liking.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

 

Q1. WHY SHOULD I VISIT NEPAL?

Nepal is an enchanting kingdom, nestled in the Himalayas between China and India. For a small territory, the country boasts an uncommonly diverse culture, and terrain, including 8 of the world’s top 10 highest mountains. Nepali folklore is often illustrated in dance and music and the people are open to sharing their traditions. Although tourism is steadily increasing, Nepal’s remote location has kept the culture widely unaffected from outside influences.

Q2. IS A VISA REQUIRED TO VISIT NEPAL?

Yes. The Nepal visa can be obtained upon arrival at Kathmandu Airport or the Nepal border. The cost is $30 for a 15-day multiple-entry visa and is payable in USD. Few countries have restrictions on arrival visas hence request you refer to https://www.immigration.gov.np/

Q3. WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO TRAVEL?

It depends on your destination, activities, and season of travel. Our destination specialists will recommend certain travel times after learning more about your preferences. The favorable months are usually September – November and February – April. The monsoon season is June – August.

4. ARE VACCINATIONS REQUIRED?

Immunizations are not required to visit Nepal. (Exception: if you are traveling from an area infected with Yellow Fever, you must have a certificate.) Depending on the season and region of travel, certain vaccinations and/ or medications are suggested and we will recommend preventative measures. We do encourage all travelers to be current on routine immunizations. Also, we recommend the Tetanus and Hepatitis A vaccine. Though still rare, Malaria is increasing in Nepal. The elevation of Kathmandu and places of greater altitude are too high for the species of mosquito that carries malaria. However, when visiting lowland areas, preventive treatment and tropical-strength insect repellent are advised.

5. I HAVE NEVER BEEN TO NEPAL AND HAVE NO IDEA WHERE TO START. WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND?

What do you hope to see and experience during your trip? Our travel experts will make recommendations based on your travel preferences. Most travelers incorporate Kathmandu, Pokhara, and Chitwan National Park. However, many also include adventure activities, including trekking and rafting.
