Tourism
Destination : Within Kathmandu |
|
|
The Himalayan Kingdom has the richest and
most diverse culture landscapes anywhere.
Nepal is the holy land of Lord Pashupatinath
and Gautam Buddha where the Hindus and Buddhists
have lived together in harmony for centuries.
The Temple of Pashupatinath is Nepal/s most
scared Hindu shrine and one of the four most
important cities in the world for Shiva worshippers.
Lord Buddha, the light of Asia, was born in
Lumbini in Nepal's southern plains, which
makes Nepal a scared pilgrimage destination
for Buddhists as well. The rich tapestry of
the cultural heritage of Nepal is synthesized
in the Kathmandu Valley. The three ancient
cities of the Valley- Patan, Kathmandu, Bhaktapur-represent
an epitome of harmony in urban design, elegant
architecture and refined culture. These cities
pack a concentration of religious monuments
unequalled in the world. Don/t miss the seven
monument zones named as World Heritage Sites
by UNESCO all situated within the small confines
of the Valley.
