This tranquil place is overlooking the lush, sweeping valley in the backdrop of the Himalayas, which makes it one of the popular hill stations around Kathmandu. Exploration of the old town of Dhulikhel gives an authentic experience of the Newari art and architecture depicted in its pavilion, sunken water spouts and temples.

Panauti
A cultural tour of Panauti offers a unique opportunity to explore the rich Newari cultural heritage. This medieval town stayed aloof from the modernization that the other Newari kingdoms went through. Thus, it is a more laid-back and less touristy Newari town to observe the local Newari lifestyle, art, and architecture. The tour typically includes visits to significant landmarks such as the cremation ground at Triveni Ghat, ruins of Panauti Durbar (palace where the Prince Mahasattva was born), and the Indreshwar Mahadev Temple, providing insights into the town's spiritual and historical significance.
