A giant Buddhist Stupa standing atop a small hill in the western part of Kathmandu valley is the major attraction on the site although several other monuments, things, and happenings are no less fascinating.

Pashupatinath – Pashupatinath is a very important Hindu temple area where we go to see the Hindu cremation system and death rituals. As the main temple complex is strictly a ‘Hindus Only’ area, non-Hindus will witness the cremation rituals on the bank of the holy river called Bagmati.
