Trip Notes:
Fly: China Southern offers flights to Kathmandu for as little as $900 return, with just a
short 3 hour stopover in China.
Stay: For an air of old time chic and charm, stay at the Shenker Hotel. If you enjoy drinking
tea in beautiful gardens then Kathmandu Guesthouse is also worth a visit.
See: Bodhnath Stupa is one of the most important pilgrimage sites in the world for
Tibetan Buddhists and Nepalis, it definitely is well worth a visit. Perched atop a hill in the
Kathmandu Valley is the ancient religious complex of Swayambhunath - also known as the
Monkey Temple, great for sunset. Then there is Kopan Monastery, a spiritual oasis that
offers various meditation and yoga courses.
