There are several worth seeing must-see places in this valley. Which places are listed at the end of this article? All these sightseeing places can be easily visited by staying at any one place in Kathmandu Valley.

Kathmandu Valley is not only the capital of Nepal’s political power. This ancient valley is also the capital of Nepal for its historical art, valuable religious heritage, and attractive natural beauty.

Modernity to Antiquity everything in Kathmandu

It would be easier to answer what is there in Kathmandu Valley than what is not there. Since it is such an ancient city, some historical or favorite things can be found on every street and place.

Modern Kathmandu is a large city with a large human population located in the center of Nepal, at an altitude of 1400 meters or more above sea level.

Therefore, apart from religious and natural wealth, observation of modern urban life and human development can also be another aspect of the Kathmandu trip.

Kathmandu has been the center of Nepal’s history, art, culture, and economy for many years. It is the cultural center of the majority of people following Hinduism and Buddhism and is also a confluence of an inclusive culture of all mixed castes.

Kathmandu is famous for tourists from all over the world. The city is considered the gateway to the entire Himalayas of Nepal and is home to several World Heritage Sites. The tourism industry is an important part of the city’s economy.

A sad reality of modern Kathmandu

Kathmandu is the first region or city of Nepal facing unprecedented challenges of rapid urbanization and modernization. People from all over the country come to Kathmandu to build houses. Therefore, the beautiful empty geography and cultivable land here is gradually being destroyed.

Due to this trend, the population of Kathmandu is increasing at a rate of 4 percent every year. As a result, Kathmandu is being counted as the fastest-growing city in South Asia.

Kathmandu is also the center of Nepal’s economy. Moreover, the city is also home to the most educated people of Nepal, including most of the rich, politicians, dignitaries, writers, artists, doctors, lawyers, technicians, and learned intellectuals.
