Overview

Escape the bustling Kathmandu and soak in the natural and spiritual vibe of Dhulikhel, Namobuddha, and Panauti. Stop at Dhulikhel to look into the Himalayas and explore its old town. A gentle walk of about 2 hours around Namobuddha passes through charming villages and woods, often coming to viewpoints looking at lush valleys with snow peaks. The Namobuddha is where Shakya Muni Buddha, in his previous life, sacrificed himself to feed a hungry Tigress and her cubs, which made it one of the most important pilgrimages for Buddhists. The tranquility and spiritual vibe of the place make this trip exclusive. Enjoy the panoramic view of the Himalayas, and later visit another authentic Newari settlement of Panauti on the way back. This medieval town stayed aloof from the modernization that the other Newari kingdoms went through.

Activity itinerary

Dhulikhel
  • 20m
Dhlikhel was a town at the checkpoint to the trans-Himalayan trade route of medieval Nepal. This tranquil place is overlooking the lush, sweeping valley in the backdrop of the Himalayas, which makes it one of the popular hill stations around Kathmandu. Exploration of the old town of Dhulikhel gives an authentic experience of the Newari art and architecture depicted in its pavilion, sunken water spouts and temples.
Namobuddha
  • 3m
This hike to Namobuddha is relatively straightforward, making it accessible for individuals of varying fitness levels. The trail offers a scenic journey through lush landscapes, providing an opportunity to appreciate the natural beauty of the region. As you approach Namobuddha, the serene atmosphere and spiritual significance of the site enhance the overall experience, making it a rewarding excursion for both nature enthusiasts and those seeking a moment of reflection.
Panauti
  • 25m
A cultural tour of Panauti offers a unique opportunity to explore the rich Newari cultural heritage. This medieval town stayed aloof from the modernization that the other Newari kingdoms went through. Thus, it is a more laid-back and less touristy Newari town to observe the local Newari lifestyle, art, and architecture. The tour typically includes visits to significant landmarks such as the cremation ground at Triveni Ghat, ruins of Panauti Durbar (palace where the Prince Mahasattva was born), and the Indreshwar Mahadev Temple, providing insights into the town's spiritual and historical significance.
