Tour description

Kathmandu has a lot of temples. They are typically two types. Hindu temples and Buddhist temples (known as stupas). Temples are the dominant architectures for now. But we offer totally different than this. Our focused is to show you recent architecture and abandoned part of the city. There you will see the real picture of Nepal. We take in totally non touristic area for an hour and half may be two and in this time you will see a lot of traditional subject matters in purely local markets.
It is very easy and the best day tour in Kathmandu leaded by a very professional government licensed tour guide. On your request, our guide will come to meet you in your hotel and drive directly for 30 minutes in swayambhunath temple or monkey temple by his private car. This temple is situated at the top of Kathmandu valley. Being on the highest point, you can view whole Kathmandu valley from there.
This is a very sacred holly place and one of highly famous tourist attractions of Nepal listed in the UNESCO world heritage site since 1979. There are a lot Buddhist symbols to see and understand. Monkey temple is believed to be built by itself. It has beautiful legend which says whole valley used to be a water lake. In the center of the lake there was lotus flower. One of enlightened Buddha drained the water. When he did it the lotus came on the hill and turn into the light. It is exactly where the monkey temple is situated.
This is also the right place to take a look at live handicrafts making by the locals. There are real places where you can see people painting wonderful paintings of different Nepali symbols including the Himalayas. Stone carving, 7 metal healing bowls therapy and Tibetan painting centers are amazing to take a look at.
When you finish touring over here then our guide will drive back to the center to take a private walk to the abandoned part of Kathmandu where you will see amazing old architectures. You are walking in the area where there are over crowd of locals, where you can see amazing Nepali traditional stuffs required for different rituals. Tour to Ashan and Indrachok from Thamel to Thamel can be done within 2 hours. These places are the oldest places they are still as they used to be years back.
Note: if you are less than 10 persons in the group then price will be different.
