In the late afternoon, we visit Boudhanath Stupa, the spiritual beating heart of Tibetan culture in Kathmandu. Walk clockwise alongside monks in maroon robes, listen to the gentle hum of spinning prayer wheels, and enjoy a warm cup of Himalayan tea at a rooftop cafe overlooking the golden spire.

As dusk approaches, we head to Swayambhunath Stupa (The Monkey Temple) perched atop a lush hill. Climb the stone steps to catch a stunning 360-degree sunset view of the entire Kathmandu Valley.
