Kathmandu is a colourful city in a valley that is surrounded by tall, looming mountains. There are many reasons foreigners make a beeline to the city. Firstly, Kathmandu is a starting point for many treks. It is from here that the trekkers go off on different trails taking up the challenge to scale the Himalayas. The ornately decorated pagodas and temples are a sight for jaded eyes. They are steeped in history and culture, but the architecture is something that has to be witnessed first-hand.
Kathmandu is rich in heritage. The best way it is remembered and celebrated is through festivals. There are a number of events in Kathmandu, but most have their basis in religion.
