Kathmandu, the main city of Nepal, is a place where old and new life mix together. Located in the Himalayas, this busy city is a gateway to amazing views and important spiritual traditions. You can expect an interesting experience as you walk through the strong smell of incense from old temples, navigate the lively streets filled with motorbikes, and see the detailed wooden buildings. A trip to Durbar Square is essential. It is an important area with palaces and shrines that show the city's history. Don’t miss the UNESCO World Heritage Sites like Swayambhunath and Pashupatinath Temple, where you can experience the city’s spiritual atmosphere. However, be ready for some challenges: the busy traffic, occasional power cuts, and air quality can be tough to deal with. The cost of living can also be high for those wanting comfort, and safety can be a worry, especially for women. Despite these issues, the friendliness of the locals and the chance for adventure make Kathmandu a memorable... place to visit. A little patience and a good attitude will help you enjoy this unique city!
