During my
visit to Bhutan, I had to return via Nepal and had a one-day transit stay in Kathmandu
and wanted to use the day to visit the highlights of Patan and Bhaktpur. I just
googled and found this agency. I contacted Kishor before I set foot in
Kathmandu and he answered friendly, not only to my email but to all my
questions. Kishor picked me up and took me on a guided tour of Patan and
Bhaktapur. A visit to Bhaktapur is a fascinating experience. On Durbar Square,
the streets and alleys around Durbar Square you can admire the splendor of
Newari architecture. The Neva was responsible for the invention of the pagoda
temple, which can be admired here in its original purity before this style
spread to other countries. The area is completely within walking distance, so
you can slowly visit and appreciate it. Take a look around: You will always
find details where you can rest and be surprised.
