Temples and Monasteries

Kathmandu’s spiritual landscape is defined by the centuries-old coexistence of Hinduism and Buddhism. This selection includes the UNESCO-listed Boudha and Swayambhunath stupas, alongside the sacred Pashupatinath Temple complex on the Bagmati River.

It also highlights active centers of Tibetan Buddhist learning, such as Shechen Gompa and the Kopan Nunnery, representing the city's diverse monastic traditions and pagoda-style architecture.
