What You Will Do
Explore ancient temples and myths in the valley of gods where Hinduism and Buddhism meet.
The Bhaktapur Durbar Square lies 13 km east of Kathmandu. Bhaktapur is the living representation of how the entire Kathmandu Valley would have looked like during the medieval periods. The city is celebrated for its glorious architecture; sky-high temples built in pagoda style, fine clay pottery, and massive royal courtyards dating back to the 12th century.
Changu Narayan Temple:
This temple is said to be the oldest Hindu temple in Nepal. Built in the two-tiered pagoda style, the main shrine here is guarded on all sides by pairs of real and mythical beasts – elephants, lions, winged lions and ram-horned griffons – and its roof struts feature some amazingly intricate carvings of Tantric deities.
Nagarkot, located 32 km east of Kathmandu, is considered one of the most scenic spots in Bhaktapur District and is known for its sunrise and sunset views of the Himalayas.
