Best place to visit during your stay in Kathmandu. Monkey temple also called Swayambhunath Stupa in local nepali language. It had became an important place for Buddhism. Mostly crowded by tourists. Its is one the highest point in Kathmandu valley surrounded by prayer and Monkey.

it’s a historically important monument that lies at the heart of Kathmandu city. there a nice walk to the top of the stupa where you will be greeted by many street vendors and monkeys

The must in Kathmandu valley. Beautiful stupa on top of the hill. Good panoramic view up there.

it’s a beautiful place and peace of mind … Kathmandu is the place of heaven … beautiful design with cleanliness and purity

An old ancient religious place evolved from the Buddhism located at the top hill of kathmandu. Also known by the name of Monkey temple. A place of harmony and peace located at the city surrounded by beautiful nature.. I had perfect time of visit in the evening.

First day trip to Kathmandu, Nepal. Since the first day of the plane was late, it was already evening to Kathmandu. I heard that the Monkey Temple is the best place to watch the panoramic view of Kathmandu. I wanted to go to the Monkey Temple to watch the sunset. I missed the taxi. It was a little regrettable, but I saw the night view. The Monkey Temple, as the name implies, there are many monkeys here, so it is named. But in fact, its original name was swayanbunath. When I took a taxi, I showed the photo to the master. The master immediately knew where it was. We were late at the time. In order to hurry, the one-way taxi to the top of the mountain was 300 rupees. We told the master that the chartered car was going back and forth. It was late and it was not convenient to go down the mountain. I heard that there is a road at the foot of the mountain not far away. When we arrived, it was already more than 6 pm local time. At this time, there was no ticket fee, and we could still go in and visit. In this way, we saw the night view of the Monkey Temple and the night view of Kathmandu. There are not many people at night, there are still many monkeys, and the monkeys here are not afraid of people. Life in such a place has really become refined. There is also a big big Buddha tower with colorful flags hanging on it. We arrived late, it was dark soon, and we didn't stay here for a long time, about half an hour. If you come during the day, you can stay here in a daze. Nepal is a place to stay in a daze.

Sawambhunath Pagoda, Monkey Temple (Swayambhunath) with 365 steps up (again? 😅) The temple is located on a high point, giving you a beautiful view of the city and Himalayan views from this temple.
