Spend the morning exploring Bhaktapur Durbar Square, the best-preserved medieval city in Nepal, before returning through the backstreets of Kathmandu old town. A full day that earns its own place in your travel memories alongside the trek itself.

Itinerary
Nagarkot sunrise viewpoint (2,195m)
The most accessible Himalayan sunrise viewpoint from Kathmandu. On a clear day, the Everest massif is visible on the eastern horizon.
Bhaktapur Durbar Square
A UNESCO World Heritage city untouched by modern development. Potters Square, the 55-Window Palace, and the Golden Gate are unmissable.
Kathmandu old town walk
Navigate the ancient trading streets of Ason Bazaar and Indra Chowk — still buzzing with spice merchants, marigold sellers, and temple life.
