Sightseeing In Nepal { Nepal Travel}

 

Tour begins at the historic seat of Royalty. Known as the Hanuman Dhoka. This Durbar [palace] square named after Human mythical monkey –god is surrounded by old temples known for their erotic carvings in their wooden struts and windows like the following: Basantpur Durbar also known as Nautale Durbar [or Nine storeyed palace] built by king Prithvi Narayan Shah, the founder of modern Nepal. Temple of Kumari means Nepal’s Virgin Goddesses. The temple itself is a richly carved Pagoda- style building and a piece of beauty.Kasthmandap to have been built in 1059 AD from the timber of a single tree, this is another pagoda-styled architectural showpiece from which the name of Kathmandu has been derived.

Other ‘musts’ in the Durbar Square area include architectural masterpiece like the Taleju Bhawani Temple, Shiva Parbati temple and the Makhan Pashupatinath, besides the awesome sculpture in granite, the colossal Kal Bhairav and Pratap Malla’s black stone tablet containing inscription in 13 languages. Swayambhunath from Hanuman Dhoka we move on to a milock which rises about 2000 feet above the valley –level land is famous for its 2000 year old stupa of Swayambhunath surrounded by various other temples and small chaityas.This also provides a breath taking bird’s eye view of Nepal’s capital valley with high snow capped mountains like the Ganesh Himal forming a beautiful backdrop. Pashupatinath is Nepal’s most famous religious site on the banks of the holy Bagmati River.
Guhyeshweri an their ancient and holy site just a kilometer away from the Pashupatinath and forms a complimentary to it because it is dedicated to goddess Parvati consort of Lord Shiva known also as Pashupati. Baudanath stupa known also as the khasti chaitya and nick named the "temple of dew drops"; this is believed to one of the most massive Buddhist stupas in the whole of Asia.

Another attraction here is the carpet weaving industry mostly operated manually by the Tibetan community there by giving you an impression that you are in a "mini" Tibet if not already Tibet. The temple of Dakshinkali is situated about 18 km. South of Kathmandu city and is an important place of Hindu pilgrimage, but those who cannot stomach the grisly sight of bloody animal sacrifices which is routine there, can choose a more peaceful retreat like Budanilkantha, about 10 km. north of city to see the mammoth blue granite statue of the reclining Vishnu. On your return, a visit to the Balaju water garden with its 22 old stone water-faucets, a swimming pool and a fishpond will help refresh oneself.

Patan
Situated about 5 km east of Kathmandu. Patan is one of the three oldest cities of the Kathmandu valley. Even the Indian emperor Ashoka is said to have built four stupas here in third century BC, which can still be seen today. Metal craft center that reveal Nepal’s past and present glory can also be easily visited in this city of arts and crafts. Other landmarks worth visiting include. One of Patan’s main attraction is the place square situated of the center of the city.

It is full of ancient temples and shrines with exquisite carvings, such as the Krishna temple, Bhimsen temple, Hiranyavarna mahavihar [also known as golden temple], Mahaboudha, Minnath, Machhendranath, Khembheshwar etc. Nearby we visit the Tibetan refugees handicraft center, also known as "Nepal’s little Tibet".

Bhaktapur and Changu Narayan
Its about 14 km east of Kathmandu city, Bhadgaon or Bhaktapur, founded in the ninth century, means "The city of Devotees", and is renowned for its ancient pottery and traditional weaving industries besides exquisite temple architecture, as in the case of Kathmandu and Patan.

Nyatapola Temple a five storied pagoda style temple, the tallest in the city, was built in 1708 AD and well known for its massive structure and subtle workmanship including an array of huge sculptures representing hefty wrestlers, elephants, lions and griffins.Another 15th cent8ury temple believed to have been built from views of Dhaulagiri, Annapurna, Fishtail, Manasalu and others. The beauty of the valley is out of the timber of a signal tree. 20 minute drive up hill takes us to the most ancient pagoda style temple in Nepal is known as Chug Narayan, richly decorated with artistic engravings and beautiful statues. On the way back a visit to the ancient town of Thimi will be very rewarding.
