This temple of Lord Shiva is considered as one of the most sacred Hindu shrines in the world. The sprawling collection of temples, ashrams, images and inscriptions raised over the centuries along the banks of the holy Bagmati River are the glaring attractions of this historical temple.

Swayambhunath Stupa

The Swayambhunath Stupa is an ancient religious Buddhist shrine that sits on a hill top of the Kathmandu’s valley. It is said to have evolved spontaneously when the valley was created out of a primordial lake more than 2,000 years ago. This world heritage site is also known as Monkey Temple as there are holy monkeys living in the north-west parts of the temple. The glory of Kathmandu Valley is said to have started from this point. This is a fabulous place to catch the panoramic views of the city.

Bouddhanath Stupa

The colossal and ancient Bouddhanath Stupa is the biggest Stupa of Nepal and also the holiest of all Buddhist temples outside of Tibet. The Stupa of Bouddhanath is believed to have the remains of Kassapa Buddha. The Stupa in Bouddhanath is the focal point of Tibetan culture inside of Kathmandu where all major holy Buddhist events and festivals are celebrated. There are lots of monasteries around Bouddhanath which is a center for learning and practicing Buddhism. Bouddhanath is both an eye of calm within capital's dusty pandemonium and a sanctuary of Tibetan Buddhist culture.
