Overview of Kathmandu
At the heart of its UNESCO-listed valley, the "mythical" Nepali capital draws thousands of travellers and pilgrims every year. Besides helping you organise a trip or trek elsewhere in the country, the city—badly hit by the 2015 earthquake—also boasts numerous buildings, monuments, and neighbourhoods worth visiting.
