Cần Quan Tâm
Chandragiri Hills is a scenic hilltop destination located on the southwestern outskirts of Kathmandu Valley, approximately 2,500 meters above sea level. It offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Himalayan range, including peaks like Everest, Annapurna, and Manaslu on clear days. Accessible via a modern cable car ride that lasts around 10–15 minutes, the journey itself is a highlight, soaring over lush forests and offering stunning valley vistas. At the top, visitors can explore the Bhaleshwor Mahadev Temple, a sacred site dedicated to Lord Shiva with historical and spiritual significance. The hilltop also features landscaped gardens, a children’s playground, souvenir shops, and a variety of restaurants and cafes. Chandragiri Hills is a perfect blend of natural beauty, cultural heritage, and family-friendly recreation, making it a must-visit destination for travelers seeking peaceful ambiance and majestic views away from the city bustle.
Swoyambhu Mahachaitya
Swayambhunath Stupa, commonly known as the Monkey Temple, is one of the most iconic and ancient religious sites in Nepal. Perched atop a hill in western Kathmandu, this UNESCO World Heritage Site offers a 360-degree view of Kathmandu Valley and is revered by both Buddhists and Hindus. Dating back over 2,500 years, the central stupa features a brilliant white dome topped with a gilded spire, upon which the all-seeing eyes of Buddha gaze out in four directions. The site is adorned with prayer flags, spinning wheels, and smaller shrines and temples, reflecting a rich blend of Vajrayana Buddhist and Hindu architectural influences. The nickname “Monkey Temple” comes from the sacred monkeys that inhabit the site, adding a lively and unique character to the spiritual atmosphere. With its deep historical roots, sacred symbolism, and elevated location, Swayambhunath offers visitors a profound cultural experience and a peaceful retreat from the city's chaos.

5.00We had a truly wonderful experience on the Chandragiri Cable Car and Monkey Temple tour with Poonam. From the very beginning, her warm personality and positive energy made the day feel special. She is highly knowledgeable about the local history and culture, sharing engaging insights about the temples and surrounding areas that enriched our visit. Her professionalism also stood out, she was punctual, well-organized, and made sure everything ran smoothly and comfortably throughout the tour. I would highly recommend Poonam to both Indian and English-speaking travelers visiting Kathmandu. If you’re looking for a guide who is knowledgeable, reliable, and genuinely pleasant to spend time with, she’s an excellent choice.

5.00Amazing private tour with our driver and Guide Sajina Banjara. Sajina waa an awesome guide. She connected with us a few days before to confirm hotel pick up and itinerary. She also arranged a larger vehicle to make the tour more comfortable for our group of 4. They arrived early for pick up. Sajina shared some amazing knowledge about Nepal history and culture, as well as Kathmandu sights. The Chandragiri Cable ride was spectacular, amazing scenery from the top. The Monkey temple visit provided more great scenery and insights into Buddhist culture.
Amazing tour with guide Sajina to Chandragiri and Monkey Temple.
