Nepal Travel Guide

It is a generic name for the plazas in front of the ancient royal palaces, the bustle places always with many things to see and do. There are three Durbar squares in and around Kathmandu, Kathmandu Durbar Square with the famous nine-story palace, Patan Durbar Square in red color and the Bhaktapur Durbar Square with a long, long history. Walking in the square, you can see lots of ancient temples, local people selling their beautiful handicrafts, weddings being celebrated, and the living Goddess. The buildings in the squares are also stunning. It is a visual feast to find the pagoda-shaped buildings with their red fabric frills, fantastic carvings and statues.

There are many things to do in Pokhara, the lake city known for its natural beauty. Take a boat ride on the tranquil, clear waters of Fewa or Begnas Lake while admiring the sacred Varahi Mandir temple, then enjoy a simple picnic or a romantic lakeside dinner as the sun slowly goes down. Take a morning hike to the beautiful Annapurna range and catch the gentle sunrise, or go caving in the interesting Pokhara caves. For something a little more adventurous, head to the Himalayas for a trekking experience or be prepared to leave your mark on a snow-covered peak.

Located in western Nepal, Chitwan National Park is renowned for its breathtaking safaris and outstanding experiences. You can explore the exhilarating jungle on foot or by jeep in search of animals such as deer, sloth bears, leopards, the endangered one-horned rhinoceros and the Royal Bengal tiger. You can also experience the jungle by canoeing down its rivers. From the river, you can see rare fish-eating gharial crocodiles and a variety of birds. At dusk, you can walk with the elephants or watch them play in the river.
