Kathmandu Essentials

Kathmandu’s historical center is defined by the UNESCO-listed Durbar Square, featuring the Hanuman Dhoka palace and the reconstructed Kasthamandap. The city’s spiritual landscape includes the massive Boudha Stupa, a focal point for Tibetan Buddhism, and the hilltop Swayambhunath complex. Significant Hindu sites like the Pashupatinath Temple sit along the Bagmati River, while the neoclassical Garden of Dreams provides an Edwardian-style escape. These sites collectively showcase the intricate woodcarving and brickwork of traditional Newari architecture.
