The Kathmandu Valley is renowned for its three royal squares—Kathmandu Durbar Square, Patan Durbar Square, and Bhaktapur Durbar Square. Each square is a living museum, showcasing medieval palaces, temples, courtyards, and intricate wood and stone carvings that reflect the grandeur of the Malla dynasty. This private tour takes you through all three in a single day, offering a complete cultural immersion into the art and history of Nepal.
