Swayambhunath sits atop its hill, overlooking most parts of the valley. This is a good place to catch panoramic views of the city.

The site itself has stood as a hallmark of faith and harmony for centuries. The glory of Kathmandu Valley is said to have started from this point.

Day 2: Chobhar - Kritipur, Bungmati and Khokana

The small picturesque village of Chobhar overlooking the Bagmati River is just 5 kilometers beyond Thamel. The Chobhar Gorge below is the greater attraction. Alongside is the Jal Vinayak Temple, an important pilgrimage site for the valley residents. Legend has it that the gorge was carved out by a mighty blow of the sword by Manjushree who wanted to drain the lake that filled Kathmandu Valley in ancient times. Even today, the Valley’s waters gush out to the plains beyond the hills through this place. After this you will drive 1 km to the historical town called Kirtipur. Kirtipur a historic city and home to the oldest and largest University named Tribhuwan University.

Kirtipur, an ancient city of Nepal located in the Kathmandu Valley, 5 km south-west of the city of Kathmandu is one of the most famous and religious places to visit. Many people visit this place to not only to see the beauty of nature but also to visit temples. The city was listed as a UNESCO tentative site in 2008.

Kirtipur’s history dates from 1099 A.D. It was part of the territory of Lalitpur at the time of the invasion of the Kathmandu Valley by the Gorkhali king Prithvi Narayan Shah in the 18th century. This site is home to many important historical and religious places like Bagh Bhairab temple which is one of the most popular temples dedicated to God Bhairab in the form of an angry tiger. This god is regarded as the guardian of Kirtipur and ceremonial rituals in relation to the important events of life such as rice-feeding, puberty, marriage and even the construction of houses cannot be done without propitiating this deity in most of the towns and cities of Nepal. Similarly, Chilancho Stupa a Buddhist shrine situated on the southern hill made in the medieval period is one of the most important historical stupas of this region. A Theravada Buddhist monastery built in traditional Thai architectural style situated near the entrance to the city is one of the beautiful places of Nepal.

A popular saying, “Heaven is a myth, Nepal is real” has been heard and believed over the years and it is because of these heritage sites, this sentence stands true to its meaning. Kathmandu valley, housing these beautiful sites has a lot to offer right from JUJU Dhau at Bhaktapur to the local Barfi at Patan to its visitors. These heritage sites over the centuries have seen Nepal grow and have stood with their countrymen as the keepsake left behind by the Kings and Rulers of the Valley. These temples and Durbars reflect the identity of Nepalese people and their glorious past. The sight these places offer are never enough. One cannot place a finger on how and when time passed strolling and taking pictures in these Durbar Squares, each that represent the culture and tradition that Nepalese people come from.
