Enjoy our day trip to Kathmandu Heritage tour by exploring all the cultural sites. There are many places to visit in Kathmandu, but on this tour, we will take you to the heart of 4 cultural heritage sites listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. One of them is Pashupatinath, the most significant Hindu temple of Lord Shiva in the world. The Pashupati Nath temple is located on the bank of the Bagmati River in the eastern part of Kathmandu. Nearby, you can also witness the cremation at the bank of the river.
You will visit another heritage site, “Boudhanath,” one of the holiest Buddhist sites in Kathmandu. It’s located about 11 km from the centre and northeastern outskirts of Kathmandu. The stupa’s massive mandala makes it one of the largest spherical stupas in Nepal.
Another important cultural heritage site is Swoyambhunath, an ancient religious complex atop a hill in the Kathmandu Valley, west of Kathmandu city. People also know this place as the Monkey Temple, as holy monkeys live in the northwest parts of the temple.
Lastly, you will visit another heritage site, the “Kathmandu Durbar Square”. The place is rich with spectacular architecture and vividly showcases the skills of the Newar artists and artisans over several centuries.
