A prominent UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the largest Stupas in the world, Boudhanath is a sacred place for Tibetan Buddhism. Even with thousands of pilgrims, monks and tourists coming here every day, the air you breathe here is of serenity. Amidst the Kora being performed and the prayer wheels turning, the sounds of mantra chanting would fill your heart with divinity.

 

Mythological Background
It is believed that the stupa was built right after the demise of Lord Buddha by the four sons of an Apsara, who all were extremely religious in their attitude. According to the Tibetan Buddhists, it was built by four sons of a poor woman who had interred the remains of a Buddha Sage at that spot. Whichever story one may believe, the prominence of Boudhanath Stupa remains the same for all.

 

What to see here?
Around the stupa there are several monasteries where one can glance into the cultural richness of this region. The nearby lanes are brimming with workshops where different accouterments essential for Tibetan Buddhist life are made. These include the Tibetan drums, butter lamps, ceremonial horns and headgear to name a few. The best time to come here would be on a full moon night when the plaza is illuminated by thousands of butter lamps.

    I recently had the pleasure of experiencing the Kabir Lavacation Casino Package at the Soaltee Hotel, and I must say, it was an outstanding and affordable getaway that left me thoroughly impressed. From the moment I checked in at the Soaltee Hotel, I was welcomed with warm hospitality and a sense of luxury that set the tone for the entire trip. The staff was incredibly attentive, ensuring that every aspect of my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. The casino experience itself was a highlight of my visit. The Kabir Lavacation package provided excellent value for money, granting access to a world-class casino with a wide range of games and entertainment options. Whether I was trying my luck at the slot machines, testing my skills at the poker table, or enjoying a game of roulette, the casino staff were friendly and professional, creating an exciting and vibrant atmosphere. ...more

    Mr. Pravin Tripathi from Tripathi Travels customised our tour as per our requirements. We started from Kathmandu and ended at Gorakhpur. He arranged one of his best drivers named Balram to help us as a tour guide and driver. He guided us at all the tourist spots. I recommend tripathi travels. Praveen sir and Balram were daily enquiring about our experience on daily basis throughout our trip. Nepal is beautiful country to visit. Nepali people are also helpful and polite. ...more

    Annapurna Circuit Hiking - Absolutely Amazing !!! My Partner & I did AC circuit with Santosh & Sumit. This was my first trek with Santosh & was such an amazing experience. From the minute Santosh met us at Kathmandu Airport to the minute he dropped us off he was nothing but amazing. He took wonderful care of us, made sure we both had a wonderful experience & was a very professional, well organised guide. He ensured we stayed in best tea houses at each village & called ahead to ensure we had the best room secured. He always went out of his way to look after us. We got a bit sick a couple of times but Santosh took very good care of us & got us some meds to treat (stomach bug) issues. Santosh & Sumit (Porter) were great to be with, always happy & friendly & enjoyed nightly games of cards with them. Santosh was very flexible & suggested changes to the listed itinerary to ensure we got ...more

    I on behalf of my family must compliment you for organizing such a wonderful trip for us to Kathmandu and Pokhara. The arrangements were simply fantastic right form picking us up from NJP railway station upto our dropping back at Bagdogra airport. The team at Nepal are worth mention as they also have done their part in ensuring that we have a fantastic holiday. It was a pleasure to travel in Nepal in the extremely new Hi ace commuter and of course the hotel at Pokhara, Temple Tree Resort suggested by you, was simply the right place for the holiday we wanted. The resort definitely deserves a mention in Tripadvisor which I will definitely do!! On a whole I must really thank you for such personalized services from your team and specially you. One thing is for sure, that any trip to Nepal will be only through your agency!! Thanks once again for all the efforts put in.
