This private day excursion, spanning over a duration of 5 hours, commences from Kathmandu and escorts you to the 1750 meters high Namobuddha hill, located above the village of Panauti. Take a break from the bustling city life and immerse yourself in the splendid panoramic vistas of the surrounding mountains and the valleys beneath. Occupying the top of Namobudha is the exquisite Thrangu Tashi Yangtse Monastery, offering panoramic views of Panauti and Khopasi villages. It’s widely believed that in a previous existence, Lord Buddha, as a prince, sacrificed his own body to a famished tigress and her five cubs, who were too weak to hunt for food. The remains of this altruistic prince are believed to be housed in the Namobuddha Stupa, located near the Namobuddha Monastery. The hiking trail commences from the historic town of Panauti and cruises through farmlands, small patches of woodland and villages towards the peak of Namobuddha. Upon reaching the peak, you will visit the monastery, followed by the shrine, while enjoying panoramic vistas. The journey culminates with a drive back to Kathmandu, with a drop-off at your hotel.
