Traveling in Nepal is also a unique occasion to discover a rich cultural and architectural heritage. Kathmandu, the capital, founded in the tenth century by the king Rama Deva, is a medieval city between tradition and modernity. The valley still exhibits a living, breathing entity, a vital culture that has miraculously survived till now. Situated at an altitude of 1336m above sea level, encircled by a range of green terrace hills with the Himalaya Range forming a lovely backdrop, the valley consists of 3 fabulous cities of great historic and cultural interest: Kathmandu, Patan, and Bhaktapur. Seven sites are inscribed on UNESCO’s world heritage list within a radius of 30 km. Beyond the urban milieu of these 3 ancient cities, there are also many villages and small towns that provide charming glimpses of rural life. We propose different kinds of circuits around Kathmandu; sometimes we will combine a cultural visit of this fabulous heritage with a small, easy trek through terrace hills and green rice paddies or with a jungle safari in Chitwan.
