• Swayambhunath - Situated on a hill with a view of Kathmandu Valley, Swayambhunath is among Nepal’s oldest and most iconic religious landmarks. This ancient stupa, adorned with the all-seeing eyes of Buddha, symbolizes peace and enlightenment. Encircled by fluttering prayer flags, shrines, and playful monkeys, it provides a spiritual ambiance and sweeping views of the city. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Swayambhunath holds sacred significance for both Buddhists and Hindus, embodying Nepal’s religious harmony.
• Kathmandu Durbar Square - Nestled in the heart of the old city, Kathmandu Durbar Square serves as a living museum of Nepal’s royal history. This UNESCO World Heritage Site boasts centuries-old palaces, courtyards, and temples that once housed the Malla kings. Notable features include the Hanuman Dhoka Palace, Taleju Temple, and the Kumari Ghar—residence of the Living Goddess. The detailed woodwork, stone carvings, and cultural vibrancy make this square a portal into Nepal’s history, architecture, and tradition.
• Patan Durbar Square - Celebrated for its stunning Newar architecture, Patan Durbar Square is a cultural and artistic masterpiece. This UNESCO World Heritage Site displays beautifully preserved palaces, temples, and courtyards that showcase the craftsmanship of medieval artisans. Key sites include the Krishna Mandir, Hiranya Varna Mahavihar (Golden Temple), and the former royal palace complex. Patan, also known as Lalitpur—the “City of Beauty”—offers a serene, refined atmosphere where each brick narrates a tale of Nepal’s artistic heritage.
• Changunarayan Temple - Positioned on a tranquil hilltop east of Kathmandu, Changu Narayan is Nepal’s oldest Hindu temple still in use. Dedicated to Lord Vishnu, this UNESCO World Heritage Site dates back to the 4th century and features some of the country’s finest stone, wood, and metal carvings. The temple complex is surrounded by ancient statues and inscriptions that provide insight into early Nepali history and mythology.

• Pashupatinath Temple - As one of the holiest Hindu temples globally, Pashupatinath is a revered pilgrimage site dedicated to Lord Shiva. Situated on the banks of the Bagmati River, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is more than a temple—it’s a spiritual complex filled with shrines, cremation ghats, and age-old rituals. While non-Hindus cannot enter the main temple, visitors can witness daily ceremonies, sadhus (holy men), and the profound cycle of life and death along the riverbanks. It offers a deep insight into Nepalese spirituality.
