Homestay trekking Panchase

On arrival at Kathmandu, after clearing immigration and customs, step into the receiving area where
your local tour guide will greet you and transfer you to your hotel for check-in.

Baudhanath Stupa. There is nowhere quite like Bodhnath. Asia’s largest stupa (temple) pulses
with life as thousands of pilgrims gather daily to make a kora (ritual circumnavigation) of the
dome, to spin the many prayer wheels, beneath the watchful eyes of the Buddha, which gazes
out from the gilded central tower. You will see Tibetan monks in maroon robes and with shaved
heads wander around the prayer flag–decked streets. You’re welcome to spin the prayer
wheels, enjoy the view, or take a cup of local tea in one of the many cafes and watch the many
people perform their prayers.
Pashupati Temple.One of the most mesmerizing rituals at Pashupatinath Temple is the
Pashupati Bagmati Aarati (a religious ritual which involves cleansing in the river, or in oil).
Bagmati is the holy river which flows through the temple. The river divides the temple into two
sides, with the main Pashupatinath Temple being on one side and the location of the Aarati is
performed on the other.Bagmati has great importance in Hindu religion. It is believed that
taking a holy bath on this river washes away sins.
You will also have time to visit other locations and view the sights in the bustling Kathmandu
Valley.

Bhaktapur Durbar Square. After breakfast there will be a shorter drive to Bhaktapur Durbar
Square. Bhaktapur, once the capital city of the Malla reign has remained one of the major
attractions for tourists from the beginning of tourism activities in Nepal. Since the downfall of
the Rana-Regime, Nepal has opened up to the outside world and has observed gradual growth
in incoming cultural tourists. Many tourism entrepreneurs have established souvenir shops in
Bhaktapur and it is a bustling, spiritual place. Enjoy the rustic shops, local Nepalese people
and the magnificent temples surrounding you.
Patan Durbar Square is the ancient Royal Palace of Patan and faces on to a magnificent
Durbar Square. This concentrated mass of temples is perhaps the most visually stunning
display of Newari architecture to be seen in Nepal.

We will drive you to the airport as per your flight schedule. So today willbe a rest day;this is so that
you can spend some time trying to figure out how to repack your bag with the multiple gifts and
presents you’ve bought for your family (and yourself) back into your suitcase! This is the dilemma of

those who visit Nepal. You might also like to have a final cup of local tea, and just take in a lovely long
breath of the Nepali air as you say your farewells.
