Introduction
Imbued with centuries of culture and a sense of almost mischievous excitement, Kathmandu is a city that cannot fail to beguile. Crammed with temples and courtyards, shops and merchants this is where the Middle Ages and the modern world collide. Steeped in over 2,000 years of history, the city, along with nearby Patan and Bhaktapur, boast some of the finest architectural monuments in the country and the city’s meandering network of alleys and side streets are a positive pleasure to explore. Highlights include the World Heritage setting of Durbar Square, the remarkable temple of Pashupatinath, the Monkey Temple of Swayambunath and the tourist centre of Thamel.
