Itinerary
- Day 1
Kathmandu to Nagarkot to Bhaktapur
Your hotel picks you up at 4:30 a.m. for the drive northeast toward Nagarkot, climbing to 2,100 meters on the hilltop. You'll reach the view tower in time to watch sunrise spread across the Himalayan range, with views that take in Manaslu, Ganesh, Langtang, Jugal Himal, and Mt. Everest on clear mornings. After sunrise, the drive back down heads to Bhaktapur Durbar Square, where you'll walk through this old medieval city and see the Lion Gate, Golden Gate, Nyatapola Temple, and the fifty-five windowed Malla Palace that show off traditional Nepali craftsmanship. Grab lunch on one of the Durbar Square terraces, then head back to your hotel.
