Highlights

Located in the southern corner of the Kathmandu Valley, Dakshinkali is a renowned Shakti Peeth dedicated to Goddess Kali, aptly named “Kali of the South.” The temple is often bustling with devoted worshippers, particularly on Tuesdays and Saturdays when ritual animal sacrifices take place. It’s important to note that, unlike many other places, Nepal’s Shakti Peeths do not accept female animals for sacrifice.

About Kathmandu

Kathmandu is Nepal's ancient, colourful capital, a valley city of temples, stupas and royal squares and the gateway to the Himalaya.

Kathmandu Durbar Square, the old royal square, is crowded with pagoda-roofed temples and palaces, and nearby lives the Kumari, the city's living child goddess. Thamel, the travellers' quarter, is a tangle of lanes selling trekking gear, prayer flags and handicrafts, busy with cafés and rooftop restaurants.

Top-ranked sights in Kathmandu: Namche Bazaar, Pashupatinath, Kathmandu Durbar Square (Basantapur).
