Heritage Tour

Overview

One of the top trip packages among travelers to Nepal is this World Heritage sites tour. The heritage tour has been specifically created to visit and experience all of Nepal’s UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The majority of Nepal’s UNESCO World Heritage Sites are covered by the heritage trip, which includes Lumbini, the birthplace of Lord Buddha, Bhaktapur, Patan, Chitwan National Park, Sagarmatha National Park, and Pokhara. The criteria used to choose and evaluate the heritages for the global heritage list include their historical, natural, and cultural significance, their artistic worth, their rarity, and their distinctive quality that defines the nation. Ten sites in Nepal have been designated as World Heritage Sites by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), seven of which are located inside Kathmandu.

Out of Nepal’s 10 World Heritage Sites, eight are natural heritage sites with exceptional universal importance while the other two are cultural heritage sites. Seven out of eight cultural sites are located inside the Kathmandu valley such as Kathmandu Durbar Square- The palace of the Living Goddess, the fearsome Kal Bhairab, the red monkey god, and hundreds of sexual carvings are a few examples of the sights at the Square, Bhaktapur Durbar, located in Patan Durbar Square, is made up of a collection of pagoda- and shikhara-style temples arranged around a brick and wood palace with fifty-five windows. The square is home to numerous famous landmarks and examples of distinctive architecture. The area, which showcases Nepal’s old arts, is one of the Valley’s most endearing architectural showpieces.

The most sacred Hindu pilgrimage site in Nepal is Pashupatinath. In the complex, there are statues, shrines, and temples devoted to different deities in addition to linga images of Shiva. And to Hindus, Changu Narayan is the creator’s protector. His temple, which is close to Changu Village, is frequently referred to as the oldest temple in the Kathmandu Valley, along with Lumbini (the birthplace of Lord Buddha), Chitwan National Park, and Sagarmatha National Park, which are all nominated by UNESCO as Natural World Heritage Sites. More than 450 different bird species, a one-horned rhino, an Asian elephant, a sloth bear, and a royal Bengal tiger can all be found in the densely forested Chitwan National Park. Chitwan National Park is generally quite rich.
