On landing at Tribhuvan International Airport, meet a our representative and transfer to the hotel. The latter half of the day is reserved for a sightseeing adventure in Kathmandu.

The city of Kathmandu, located in its namesake valley, can be rightfully called the cultural hub of Nepal. Its history spans over 2000 years, and a trip to this destination is a treat for any cultural enthusiast. The moderate altitude of the city keeps the weather pleasant for most part of the year.

The sightseeing adventure begins with a trip to the highly revered Pashupatinath Temple. Situated on the banks of the Bagmati River, it is one of the most visited Hindu temples in Nepal. The shrine is dedicated to Lord Pashupati, a manifestation of Lord Shiva, and exhibits the pagoda-style of Buddhist architecture.

This jaunt further takes you to Boudhanath, one of the most important centres of Buddhism in Nepal. The monument is situated on top of an irregular 16-sided platform, and is also one of the biggest stupas in the country. From above, it looks like a giant mandala, and the spire atop the stupa has the eyes of Lord Buddha painted on its four sides.

After this excursion, return to the hotel for an overnight stay.
