Essential Tips
Things worth knowing before you go
Dress Modestly for Temples
Cover shoulders and legs when visiting religious sites like Pashupatinath and Swayambhunath to show respect.
Learn Basic Nepali Phrases
A simple "Namaste" or "Dhanyabad" (thank you) goes a long way in connecting with locals.
Be Mindful of Street Scams
Avoid overly pushy vendors and fake tour guides—stick to well-reviewed experiences and licensed guides.
Try Local Cuisine
Don’t miss out on momos, dal bhat, and Newari dishes like yomari and samay baji for an authentic taste of Nepal.
Respect the Local Pace of Life
Kathmandu is chaotic yet spiritual—embrace the honking, street cows, and bustling markets as part of the experience.
