Trip Overview

Pilgrimage Tour in Nepal takes you to all the major Hindu shrines of Nepal. We begin our Pilgrimage Tour from the Mega Hindu Shrine of the entire world- the Temple of Pashupatinath. We explore around the temple, offer prayers at the main temple, witness cremation ongoing at Aryaghat and encounter several holy saints at Pashupatinath.

Nepal has the densest population of people who follow Hinduism. However, the country and its citizens have great respect for other religions. Nepal is one of the nations with the largest volume of Hindus and hence it the best destination to travel to understand the culture of Hinduism for the non-Hindu travelers. For the Hindus, Nepal is no wonder one of the most preferred homes of Shiva, Bishnu, and other Hindu deities.

Our Pilgrimage Tour also visits other Hindu shrines inside Kathmandu Valley, which include Changunarayan, Dolesornath, and Budanilkantha. However, other major highlights of this pilgrimage tour in Nepal are the trip to Muktinath. The temple dedicated to Lord Vishnu nestles at the altitude above 3700m at the foothills of Mt. Annapurna and Dhaulagiri. We offer our prayers at Muktinath, explore around and bath in 108 hot spring water at Muktinath.

We stay in Pokhara to explore this most beautiful town in Nepal. However, the stay in Pokhara also comprises the visit to temples like Bindabasini and Tal Barahi. The journey on the cable-ways to Manakamana Temple on the way back to Kathmandu is also the major highlight of the Pilgrimage Tour in Nepal.
