Overview

Hidden among towering palaces and glittering shrines, narrow streets and tucked courtyards of ancient Patan are full of stories, folklores, and myths.

Walk with us to uncover layers of history as we navigate the urban landscape to explore how the old town has evolved through the years. We will also dive into the faith practices of Newar Buddhism, Tantric Hinduisim and see how they shape everyday life in Patan today.

This walking tour is for everyone who is curious to learn
about Nepali society, specifically the Kathmandu valley . Our walk will contextualise traditions of past with ambitions of future as young Nepalis embrace their cultural norms while engaging modern values.

-Please note this tour doesn't cover Patan Durbar Square. We are intentionally exploring the old town around the main square for a more local, nuanced perspective.

If you wish, you can independently visit the main square after the tour; the museum is worth visiting! There are extra admission fees.
