The UNESCO World Heritage Site KATHMANDU DURBAR SQUARE is one of three squares in Nepal's Kathmandu Valley. Durbar Square (durbar translates to "palace" or "a prince's court") is an important location for Buddhist and Hindu rituals, holy ceremonies, royal events, and kingly coronations. Kathmandu Durbar Square, surrounded by fountains, ancient statues, small ponds, and a series of courtyards such as Mohan Chok and Sundari Chok, is a meditative, religious site for spiritual seekers.
The Swayambhu Purana claims that the valley was completely covered by a huge lake from which a lotus sprouted. The name Swayambhu, which means "Self-Created," began to be used for the valley. The name derives from a perpetual, self-existent flame (svyabhu), over which a later-erected spa was constructed. This stupa is the oldest of its kind in Nepal and has numerous shrines and monasteries on its premises. With the inclusion of Hindu temples and deities on this Buddhist site, the stupa has served as a symbol of faith and unity for millennia.
Boudhanath stupa is one of the most important pilgrimage site of Nepal listed as the largest stupas in the world and UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979. The best time for visiting Boudhanath are mornings and evenings, as you can follow the pilgrims around the stupa. In the evening, during the sunset, the atmosphere is particularly mystical.
Pashupatinath Temple is most revered Hindu temple in Nepal which is situated on the banks of holy river Bagmati. This temple lies 5km to the east of city center.

The Bhaleshwar Mahadev (temple) has long been used to worship Lord Shiva. The mandir on top of the hill is dedicated to Lord Shiva, and it is said that: “Sati Devi, Shiva's first consort, gave her life at Daksha Prajapati's yagna after Daksha insulted Shiva in front of other deities. Enraged by
Sridevi's death, Shiva walked across the world with her dead body on his back. Shiva's rage blinded him to the fact that Satidevi's decaying body was falling apart. Sridevi's body parts were scattered around the world. Later, pilgrimages were established at these locations. The Bhaleshwor Mahadev temple is thought to have been built at one of these locations, where Satidevi's brow ('Bhala') had fallen.”
