Following Bungamati, you will proceed to Khokana, where you'll learn about the origins and history of the Newar civilization. Your guide will discuss the cultural evolution while you visit significant religious sites, such as Shree Rudrayani, a 500-year-old temple notable for its three-storey architecture and intricate latticework.
