out of 5

Nestled in a valley at the foot of the world’s tallest mountains, the city is a melting pot of cultures and religions. Hindu temples and Buddhist stupas mix with medieval palaces and Newari houses in the narrow streets of the old city. The bustle and noise of the city are a stark contrast to the tranquility of the surrounding hills.

Kathmandu is also the starting point for most trekkers heading into the Himalayas, and the city’s tourist industry is well-developed. There are plenty of souvenir shops and restaurants catering to tourists, as well as a number of trekking agencies.
