Kathmandu is definitely one of the ultimate Hindu destinations for religious pilgrimages. Within the lifetime of every devout Hindu, one should make at least one pilgrimage to the beautiful Kathmandu Valley to see some of the most sacred of places. 

The Om Kathmandu Hindu Pilgrimage Tour takes you to four of the most sacred sites in the Kathmandu Valley. This will include Kathmandu Durbar Square, Pashupatinath, Boudhanath, and Budhanilkantha. These four holy places embody the spirit of Hinduism as they pay homage to many in the pantheon of the Hindu gods and goddesses, including that of Shiva and Vishnu. 

This is a one day tour which begins when a private vehicle takes you from your hotel to the four places and returns you back in the evening.

    While not a UNESCO World Heritage Site; it definitely should be. Here is one of the oldest shrines in the Kathmandu Valley which features a 5-meter long idol of Lord Vishnu reclining on the cosmic sea.
