Bhaktapur Private Tour

After being picked up from your hotel in Kathmandu, you'll head east for less than an hour to reach Bhaktapur, meaning "Place of Devotees". Experience its ancient temples during the guided tour.

Begin by exploring the city center, observing the traditional architecture unique to the region. The design contrasts with other parts of Nepal due to Bhaktapur's isolated position in the Kathmandu Valley.

Discover iconic monuments and landmarks, notably Durbar Square, the royal palace of the former Bhaktapur Kingdom, featuring beautifully carved Hindu temples. Here, the 15th century Palace of 55 Windows exemplifies Nepali art.

Admire Lu Dhowka, the ornate golden gates leading to the palace, and visit Nyatapola Temple, a five-storey pagoda from the early 1700s, along with the Dattatreya Temple.

As you explore these heritage sites, observe local shops selling traditional handicrafts, which provide further insight into Bhaktapur's culture. After the tour, you will return to Kathmandu and be dropped off at your hotel.
