Kathmandu
day tour is design specifically for those who have very little time in
Kathmandu to visit the wonderful World Heritage Sites. It is a one-day guided cultural
tour in Kathmandu. Our experienced tour guide will take you through the world
heritage sites to explore and understand the ancient heritage and all the
important places around the valley.
The
Kathmandu Day Tour offers you an educational, culturally rich and entertaining
excursion that you will cherish forever. Nepal is a famous travel and hiking
destination in the Himalayas. Cultural and natural wonders are scattered
throughout Nepal. From the high Himalayas to the Terai savanna, there are many
phenomenal views that can take us to the next world. Kathmandu is the gateway
to all the wonders of Nepal. However, Kathmandu itself is no less incredible.
Seven of the
UNESCO World Heritage sites are here in Kathmandu. Unfortunately, they are
often hidden in the chaos of the city. Walking through these busy and chaotic
streets to find all these rich and lively places is almost impossible in one
day. Here at Sublime Trails we are here to help. We take you through all the
monumental sites rich in art and culture. On our day trip to Kathmandu; our
experienced guides will assist you with an in-depth understanding of these
historical sites to take a close and in-depth look at these monuments of unique
exotic architecture, culture and art.
Kathmandu is
famous as the city of temples. During our tour of Kathmandu, we will encounter
Hindu sacred temples at every next step. With all of these culturally rich
monuments scattered throughout the valley, one would not mistakenly say that
Kathmandu is an enormous treasure trove of culture and ancient structures.
To be
honest, one day in Kathmandu is not enough to discover all these treasures. If
you want to dive very deep, you can spend a whole day with everyone. For most
people, however, this is not possible. Our tour is designed for those who have
very little time to visit or for someone who has come for the first time. Our
Kathmandu day trip is perfect for getting around Kathmandu as we try to cover
all the places that best represent our city.
The
Kathmandu day trip includes five UNESCO World Heritage sites (Kathmandu Durbar
Square, Patan Durbar Square, Pashupatinath Temple, Stupa Swayambhunath and
Stupa Boudhanath). They are known to represent culture, history, and
civilization for hundreds of years or more. We will guide you through these
places in our private vehicles with a personal guide.
Our trip

questions that interest you or taking photos.

moments in this quiet environment and saw chaitya, paintings and sculptures.

Square and explore the museum there. We can take a lunch break somewhere
between our tour of Kathmandu, depending on our preferences and our comfort. On

The
following brief descriptions give you a rough idea of what these websites are
about:
Kathmandu
Durbar Square
Kathmandu
Durbar Square is a place known for its meditation and religion for spiritual
seekers. The former royal palaces were located in the inner complex of Durbar
Square. It is surrounded by fountains, ancient statues, small ponds, and
various courtyards such as Mohan Chowk and Sundari Chowk. In the royal palaces
(Hanuman Dhoka Durbar) were the kings of the Shah and Malla dynasty who ruled
the city until the 19th century. Palaces have now been turned into museums. The
Durbar open-air complex consists of many pagoda-style temples with facades
carefully carved by Newar artists, some of which date back to the 16th century.
After the earthquake damaged the area in 2015, many of the ancient temples and
pagoda-style historic structures suffered severe damage. Kathmandu Durbar
Square was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1979 and is being
renovated and rebuilt after the earthquake.
Patan
Durbar Square
The Royal
Palace of Patan is another beautiful and old Durbar Square. What makes this
Durbar Square visually impressive is the concentrated mass of the temples of
the Newari architecture. The rebuilding of the temple had accelerated in the
period from Malla (XIV to XVIII centuries), especially during the reign of King
Siddhi Narsingh Malla (1619-60). The ancient arts, carved into the temples of
this area with the profound architectural structure, are an unforgettable
sight. Although it will still take a few years to rebuild the temples affected
by the 2015 earthquake, Patan Durbar Square is still a great place to visit.
Pashupatinath
temple
Pashupatinath
Temple is a famous Hindu pilgrimage site on the banks of the Bagmati River. It
is known as the seat of the national deity of Nepal.
Pashupatinath
is a temple complex that consists of an extensive collection of various
temples, ashrams and inscriptions from the past centuries. The structures of
the two-story buildings are built in the style of the pagoda. This sacred place
connects you with the historically rich culture of the Hindus and offers an
aesthetically pleasing view of the ancient architecture and the exotic arts
carved in these temples. As the oldest known temple in Kathmandu, it
illuminates the history of ancient Nepal.
Spend a few
moments here with Sadhus and get to know Hindu philosophy and culture with the
help of our guide.
Swayambhunath
Stupa (monkey temple)
Swayambhunath
Stupa, also known as the Monkey Temple, is one of the most sacred Buddhist
Chaityas in Nepal. Legends say that it developed spontaneously when the valley
emerged from a primitive lake more than 2,000 years ago. This configuration is
the oldest of its kind in Nepal and has numerous shrines and monasteries. There
is a saying that Swayambhu was born from a lotus flower that bloomed in the
middle of a lake that once spread in the Kathmandu Valley. Behind the hill is a
temple dedicated to Manjusri or Saraswati, the goddess of wisdom. The
Swayambhunath Stupa complex is full of chaityas, stupas and shrines of Hindu
and Buddhist deities. It also shows the harmony between Hinduism and Buddhism.
The prayer bells completely surrounded this hill. Followers can be seen in the
stupa at all times.
Boudhanath
stupa
Boudhanath
Stupa is said to have been built around the 14th century. It is arguably one of
the quietest places in Kathmandu. The huge monument is said to have been
created immediately after the Buddha's death. The building consists of a large
dome, the Buddhist pyramid is on top of the dome. All of these are on the
stepped mandalas. Pairs of eyes adorned each side of the pyramid. The
instructions represent the omniscient nature of the Buddha. It is one of the
most spectacular Buddhist sites in the world.

There are many places to visit around Kathmandu Valley. The most visiting places are as below which you should not miss
by Alex Bart, United Kingdom
During my visit to Tibet, I had to return through Nepal and had a transit time of almost a day in Kathmandu. I wanted to use the day to visit some of the city's highlights. I just found this agency on Tripadvisor and sent an email. Mr. Kishor responds to all of my questions with full details within two hours. The tour was great because Kishor organized a knowledgeable and friendly tour guide. The guide took me to all the highlights and had a wonderful conversation along the way. He always laughed and smiled, which made the visit even more pleasant. After that I had some time in Kathmandu, so Kishor took me to his house to introduce to his family and have dinner. He was a great person and helped me until I left. Do not hesitate to rent their exceptional service!
