A tale of three cities: Kathmandu, Bhaktapur and Patan

In the course of their history spanning more than 2,000 years, Kathmandu, Bhaktapur and Patan have grown from kingdoms led by clans, to the developing metropolises they are today. In between lie centuries of turbulent history, reflected in the impressive remains of the three “Durbar Squares” located in each of the three cities.

On this 5 day trip, travel back centuries and discover these historical cities. We wish to welcome you with a very warm “Hello“, or “Namaste” in Nepalese!
