Kathmandu Stopover: Two-Day World Heritage Highlights
See Durbar Square, Swayambhunath, Pashupatinath and Boudhanath in two days, with an optional early Everest mountain flight.
Suited to travelers on a trek or with a layover. On day one, walk from the Old Town Royal Palace through Asan Bazaar to Kathmandu Durbar Square. In the evening, head up to Swayambhunath (Monkey Temple) for city views. On day two, you can take an early Everest sightseeing flight. After returning, visit Pashupatinath and Boudhanath, which are close to each other, then head straight to the airport in the afternoon. Patan and Bhaktapur are saved for next time.
Everest sightseeing flights have the best visibility from October to April. They are often cancelled during the monsoon.
