About Katmandu

Kathmandu er Nepals gamle, farverige hovedstad, en dalby af templer, stupaer og kongelige pladser og porten til Himalaya.

Kathmandu Durbar Square, det gamle kongelige torv, er fyldt med pagodetempler og paladser, og i nærheden bor Kumari, byens levende barnegudinde. Thamel, de rejsendes kvarter, er en virvar af stræder, der sælger trekkingudstyr, bønneflag og kunsthåndværk, travlt med caféer og tagrestauranter.
