Kathmandu Nagarkot Tour - 4 days

Embark on an unforgettable journey through the heart of Nepal with our Kathmandu Nagarkot tour package. This meticulously crafted itinerary combines the rich cultural heritage of Kathmandu with the breathtaking natural beauty of Nagarkot. Legends say Kathmandu Valley used to be a large pond and it became habitable only after Manjushree cut a hill to drain the water out. The Valley is a treasure trove in terms of art and architecture, culture and tradition. An old saying says: ‘There are more temples than houses and more idols than people in Kathmandu.’ You can find numerous temples dedicated to different gods and goddesses in every nook and corner of the Valley. Most of these temples are built in pagoda style – often multi-storied with slanting roofs but each successive roof is smaller. The three cities in the Valley – Kathmandu, Bhaktapur and Lalitpur – used to be three independent kingdoms about 300 years ago. They used to be ruled by the Malla kings. They built many temples and palaces which are standing tall even today. This special tour package takes you to these architectural grandeurs of the Kathmandu Valley.
