Patan & Bhaktapur Tour

In Kathmandu Valley are three ancient cities, once independently ruled by their respective Malla kings: Kathmandu, Patan and Bhaktapur. In this day trip, visit Patan and Bhaktapur, home to cultural UNESCO World Heritage Sites that hark back to Nepal’s rich past. You’ll learn to appreciate Patan’s name in Sanskrit, Lalitpur, which means ‘City of Living Art.’ (Hint: it’s home to the valley’s finest sculptors and craftsmen.) Over in Bhaktapur, experience what it’s like to wade slowly back in time, with streets and architecture retaining their olden, brickmade charm. All throughout, pay close attention to their shared religious heritage. Of Buddhist and Hindu backgrounds, both Patan and Bhaktapur are wealthy with temples, shrines, idols and sculptures in honor of their gods – giving you an endless count of sights over which to marvel.
