Kathmandu valley is listed in the book of UNESCO cultural heritage sites of the world because of its rich cultural and architectural wonders. With over dozens of ancient complexes, dotted around the valley, there is no eye that is left unsurprised in the classic ambiance of Kathmandu.
First, visit the 12th century Patan Durbar Square, the royal palace of Malla Kingdom. The aesthetic carvings on the windows of this complex tell a story about the ancient lifestyle and their inspirations. After that, explore the Pashupatinath Temple to see the thousands of people worshipping in over 400 Shiva shrines. A few distances ahead, you will arrive at the Boudhanath Stupa- the largest unique Stupa in the world. Finally, ascend to the Swayambhunath Stupa, sitting at the hilltop of the Kathmandu valley.
Besides, there are other dozens of heritage sites to visit in Kathmandu. It is, therefore, people nickname Kathmandu as the ‘living museum’.
The well-paved road to Beni takes you through some of the scenic valleys and rivers of natural Nepal. Beni is about 300 km away from Kathmandu, and the drive lets you enjoy some of the best views of nature. We will stop at Damauli for lunch and then, continue on our journey to the Beni. Explore the surrounding views and feel the classic charm of the markets of the Beni.
From Beni, Jomsom is just 70 kilometers away. But, the rough and bumpy road will make it appear longer than the real distance. The more you approach Jomsom, the better the views become. The peaks of the Machhapuchre and Annapurna range gradually show up when you are about 10 km away from Jomsom. Once you reach there, explore the markets there. The view of the northeasterly mountain panorama is simply fabulous. Jomsom is best for shopping the hand-made souvenir and handicraft items of mountain people. Get yourself some memories of the mountains from there.
From Jomsom, drive to the Muktinath via Kagbeni. Even if you wish to trek to Muktinath from Jomsom, there is a short way that goes through the classic village of Jharkot.
The route via Kagbeni passes through an incredible Kaligandaki gorge, the deepest gorge in the world. Most of the time, you will be traveling on the exposed highway overlooking the gorgeous views of the mountains on the south and eastern side. The tiny houses, perched on the terraces of the hills, form an impeccable scene. By the time you reach the Muktinath, explore the man-sized golden statue of the Lord Vishnu. There are 108 sculptured water taps, emphasizing the tone of the temple. The periphery of the temple is surrounded by the incredible mountains that look breathtaking on a clear day.
After exploring the temple, return to Tatopani (meaning ‘hot water’). There is a natural hot water spring to dive in. Locally, the water of this spring is believed to have the natural healing capacity.
From Tatopani, Pokhara is just a couple of hours away by jeep. Once you reach there, spend much of your time exploring the waterfalls and lakes nearby. It is amazing to spend time in Pokhara.
From Pokhara, Kathmandu is the same way that you have been earlier. By distance, Kathmandu is 200 km away from Pokhara. It takes around 7 hours to reach there. But, sometimes, the unpredictable traffic jams lengthen the delays.
