On arrival, the sights, sounds and smells of Nepal’s bustling capital city can quickly lead to sensory overload. Take a walk into Kathmandu's backstreets and the amazing cultural and artistic heritage reveals itself in hidden temples, courtyards full of drying chillies and rice, and tiny workshops largely unchanged since the Middle Ages.

Kathmandu is home to the beautiful ancient Durbar Square – an area or plaza opposite the old royal palaces of the Newar Kingdoms. Here you can find some of the finest examples of historic architecture and a great insight into the culture of the region.

The busiest city in Nepal, Kathmandu always has plenty of events and experiences to encounter. Home to a vibrant mixture of different ethnicities, languages, and religions, Kathmandu is a colourful and varied city that provides enlightening and entertaining stays for school groups.
