The Valley of Kathmandu |
Bungamati Village, Kathmandu Valley
| The Kathmandu Valley |
| Besides the 3 major cities of
Kathmandu, Patan and Bhaktapur, Kathmandu Valley is full of villages,
temples and stupas. "The crowds, traffic and modern trappings of
Kathmandu can quickly be left behind for quiet villages and lush, terraced
hills". What better way to explore this valley and its many villages
than by car ? Hereunder a small collection of pictures of the Valley.
