It was interesting going to the squares and seeing some of the temples and the cultural areas. I didnt like the fact that EVERYWHERE you turned, there were people trying to see you cheap souvenirs that were made in other countries. Worth checking the square out though More

The mix of people here was great - all religions, ages and visitors alike - used but locals as a route through the city - did not know where to look first as so much to take in and absorb - just loved it More

Worth visiting if you love Nepalese architecture! Also there are plenty of options to shop around. But always negotiate! More

it is a nice place worht visiting, from where you may get some images of the past age of Nepal More
