About Kathmandu Tourism
Anybody who sets foot in Kathmandu is immediately filled with a sort of euphoria that is unique to the capital city of Nepal. With centuries of history bearing down on its streets, buildings and historical architectures, Kathmandu is one of those idyllic tourist destinations where cultural heritage meets urban thoroughfare and gets mingled as one. Kathmandu, Nepal has always taken pride in its well-balanced, harmonious co-existence of Hinduism and Buddhism, and the same reflects in all of its major attractions and points of interest. Being home to at least 7 UNESCO World Heritage sites and the gateway to the greatest of the Himalayan ranges and peaks, Kathmandu is one of the most popular tourist haunts, not only in Nepal but all across the Himalayas.
This experience on the Kathmandu trip is something one can hardly ever have elsewhere. Nepal is the home to eight of the top ten tallest peaks of the world. From February to April and again from October to November, these peaks can be seen as clear as daylight, from one majestic range after another, set against the azure blue sky. Mountain flight allows tourists to explore these peaks from the closest proximity possible without having to climb them. From Kathmandu, the flight trips will go around viewpoints of Manaslu, Annapurna, Ganesh Himal, Langtang Himal and several other ranges, and even a glimpse of Everest in the distance.
Adventure Sports in Kathmandu:
The high altitudes and pristine climate of Kathmandu city allowed the growth of several adventure activities here. Bungee jumping over the ferocious mountain rivers and rock climbing with proper training are there in Kathmandu all year long. Mountain biking, trekking, paragliding, and white-water rafting are the other adrenaline-pumping, spine-chilling activities that one with a strong heart can indulge in. Trekking is probably the most popular one, and the trails around Kathmandu valley are quite unparalleled in their beauty. While most people immediately think of Everest as the only option from Kathmandu, it is not true. The Annapurna Circuit and Manaslu treks are quite challenging and nerve-testing treks, so are the ones around Dhaulagiri and French Pass.
Major attractions of Kathmandu:
Boudhanath Stupa: It is one of the most sacred sites in Kathmandu and highly revered by Tibetan Buddhists.
Swayambhu Temple: Located on a hilltop in the west of Kathmandu, this is the oldest and most sacred Hindu religious sites in Nepal. It is dedicated to Lord Shiva and is believed to be an awakened deity by Hindu believers.
Pashupatinath Temple: Yet another Shiva temple, this shrine is located on the banks of Bagmati River. This too is revered by the Hindus for its spiritual significance.
Durbar Square: This is the main center in the city, located in front of the old royal palace of Nepal. Tourists come here for spending an evening of strolling, shopping, and people-watching.
Garden of Dreams: A well-curated, pristine neo-classical garden located in Kaiser Mahal, this place is one of utmost beauty and rich architecture in Kathmandu.
Festivals in Kathmandu:
Get on a celebration mode on an excursion to Kathmandu while cherishing some amazing moments during its many festivals. With its list of festivals like: Gai Jatra, Indra Jatra, Dashain, Mani Rimdu and more, Nepal tourism offers an enticing sojourn to its visitors.
Gai Jatra:
A carnival of singing, dancing, and laughter, this festival usually falls in July or August.. It is celebrated to commemorate the death of loved ones. In this festival, family members of the deceased parade on the streets while getting dressed as cows.
Indra Jatra:
Being celebrated in the month of September, this eight-day long festival is one of the most revered and exciting festivals of the Newar community. As hundreds of people gather at the Palace Square for the pole-raising ceremony, the chariot of Kumari can be witnessed while it gets taken out through the streets of Kathmandu.
Besides sightseeing and festivals, if someone who wants to make the best of their Kathmandu travel, various casino places are also suggested while on a tour to this amazing destination. The casino is a traditional business in Kathmandu and is part of the city’s urban culture. For shopping, Thamel in Kathmandu is all one needs to visit. From top to bottom, the place is lined up with a variety of shops during the day and iconic bars, making Kathmandu nightlife a dazzling one.
