Nepal's Special Features
π Special Features and Must-See Spots I visited all the sites except Changu Narayan, and here's my personal ranking of preference: π Patan Durbar Square β‘οΈ Bhaktapur Durbar Square β‘οΈ Pashupatinath Temple β‘οΈ Swayambhunath β‘οΈ Kathmandu Durbar Square and Boudhanath Stupa (Tied) Each of these favorite places has its own unique characteristics: π Patan Durbar Square is a place where you can sit for a whole day, relatively quiet within the site and with a high concentration of things to see. The museums inside are very beautiful, and you can stay for a long time. π Bhaktapur Durbar Square was visited early in the morning around 7 am. There weren't many people, but it was filled with local women and elderly coming to worship. Taking photos with the pigeons in the square also produces great shots. π Pashupatinath Temple was visited in the evening to witness the cremation and participate in the evening Aarti ceremony, which was quite shocking. Sitting among a group of locals, accompanied by the chanting of the priests, the moment was truly peaceful. π Swayambhunath was climbed via stairs, and the hill wasn't high, but the moment of reaching the top and seeing the Stupa gave a sudden sense of enlightenment. #Nepal #Kathmandu #DurbarSquare #CulturalHeritage #Travel#Bhaktapur Durbar Square#Pashupatinath Temple#Kathmandu trip #Bhaktapur#travel guide#trip diary
