Visitors can witness the beautiful full view of Kathmandu city from Swayaumbhunath. 

    Bouddhanath

    One of the biggest stupas in the world, Boudhanath is a UNESCO World Heritage site that has stood as a symbol of Buddhist faith for thousands of years, towering over the nearby town as a huge mandala of calm and beauty as well as huge eyes. Hundreds of tourists and pilgrims circle the stupa counterclockwise every day while the Buddha watches over them. It is a very popular tourist spot for both foreigners and locals.

    Kathmandu Durbar Square

    In the Kathmandu Valley of Nepal, there are three squares, one of which is Kathmandu Durbar Square, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Buddhist and Hindu ceremonies, sacred rites, royal celebrations, and kingly coronations take place frequently in Durbar Square. Kathmandu Durbar Square, which is surrounded by fountains, historic statues, tiny ponds, and the Mohan Chok and Sundari Chok courtyards, is a meditative, sacred setting for individuals looking for spiritual direction. 

    Pashupatinath Temple

    Pashupatinath Temple is one of Nepal's most revered Hindu temples. The most significant temple is devoted to Lord Shiva. this temple is situated on both sides of the holy Bagmati river and the outskirts of Kathmandu city. every year a huge number of people visit this holy site to get the blessing from lord shiva and celebrate Shivaratri, known as the night of lord shiva. which is one of the biggest celebrations in Nepal. 

    Patan Durbar Square

    Our ancestors carved and etched magnificent works of art and architecture on wood and metal, and they now display them in profusion in the Patan Durbar Square, which is situated in the heart of Lalitpur District. This city is well known for the temples, shrines, statues, monuments, festivals, culture, etc. that display the artistry of our forefathers. Even today, we can hear the tapping of tiny hammers being used by artists to construct various idols and ornaments as we walk through Patan's little pathways.

    Bhaktapur Durbar Square

    The primary tourist attraction of Bhaktapur is the Bhaktpur Durbar Square. It has four district squares: Pottery Square, Dattatreya Square, Taumadhi Square, and Durbar Square.  The 55 window palace is among the most interesting buildings in this area. It was constructed in 1427 AD by Malla King Yaksha Malla, and King Bhupendra modified it in the 17th century.

    Changunarayan Temple

    It is asserted that the two-story Vishnu temple was not constructed in the shikhara or pagoda styles. But it is built in the pagoda style. The lichhavi dynasty's history up to the present is preserved in this traditional Nepali-style temple. Many locals and tourists visit this temple.

      Exploring 2 beautiful country

      I and my group of friends travel to Bhutan to explore the country and enjoy our vacation over there. We get in touch with the Luxury holiday team for the trip and they arrange everything for us and make our trip more easy and more comfortable. We just love bhuta, its simple but unique culture, and the very welcoming locals. The food over there is very flavourful as well. In our schedule, we have a few more days remaining so we decided to go to Nepal and explore the nearby places from the city. We explore the 7 world heritage site, which is totally beautiful and Nepal is an amazing place. We will come again to explore other amazing parts of Nepal. 

      Thank you LHN Team for the wonderful trip!!!
