The famous city consists of seven World Heritage Sites where cultural heritage is the principal identity. The landmark is also regarded as the cultural and political heart of Nepal. Here are some UNESCO-listed world heritage sites explained below for detailed information.

Pashupatinath Temple:
Pashupatinath
temple is most revered Hindu temple in Nepal which is situated on the banks of
holy river Bagmati. This temple lies 5km to the east of city center. Prachanda
Deva, a Licchavi ruler and a devoted follower of Shiva, is thought to have
constructed the temple. It is designed in the Pagoda style with gilt roofing
and richly carved silver doors dedicated to Lord Shiva.
Millions of
Hindus visit the temple each year to pray and worship Pashupatinath as it is

·
Boudhanath Stupa
Boudhanath stupa
is one of the most important pilgrimage site of Nepal listed as the largest
stupas in the world and UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979. Around the 14th
century, the Boudhanath Stupa is believed to have been created just after the
death of Gautam Buddha. The structure of the building consists of a giant dome,
on the top which sits a Buddhist pyramid tower. All of this sits on top of huge
steps shaped like mandalas themselves. The stupa rapidly became an focal point
to worship and offer.
·
Swayambhunath Stupa
The Swayambhu
Purana claims that the valley was completely covered by a huge lake from
which a lotus sprouted. The name Swayambhu, which means
"Self-Created," began to be used for the valley. The name derives
from a perpetual, self-existent flame (svyabhu), over which a later-erected spa
was constructed. This stupa is the oldest of its kind in Nepal and has
numerous shrines and monasteries on its premises. With the inclusion of
Hindu temples and deities on this Buddhist site, the stupa has served as a
symbol of faith and unity for millennia. The temple is located just 5 km away
from Kathmandu.
·
Kathmandu Durbar Square
The UNESCO World
Heritage Site KATHMANDU DURBAR SQUARE is one of three squares in Nepal's
Kathmandu Valley. Durbar Square (durbar translates to "palace" or
"a prince's court") is an important location for Buddhist and Hindu
rituals, holy ceremonies, royal events, and kingly coronations. Kathmandu
Durbar Square, surrounded by fountains, ancient statues, small ponds, and a
series of courtyards such as Mohan Chok and Sundari Chok, is a meditative,
religious site for spiritual seekers.
·
Chandragiri Hills
Folklore claims
that Prithvi Narayan Shah gathered spiritual abilities for unification after
engaging in a rigorous "sadhana" or meditation at these particular
hills. The significance of Chandragiri Hill stems from King Prithivi Narayan
Shah's decision to unite Nepal. It was also a trading hub for Nepal's various
regions prior to the country's unification. The location of the Prithivi
Narayan Shah statue next to the temple emphasizes the sacredness of the land.
This statue is also easily visible from where you exit the cable car ride, and
it is the first stop for visitors as they ascend the hill. It is conveniently
located 24 kilometers from the heart of Kathmandu, Nepal, and is easily
accessible to residents of the capital city. As a result, it is a popular
tourist destination. This location is linked to Nepal's political upbringing as
well as the people's economic trade all those years ago. The site is promoted
to people of all ages and genders. There is a temple for the elderly and
religious, a view tower for young adults, a playground for children, and a
business hotel for middle-aged businessmen. This is a great place to get away
from the bustling city life of Kathmandu for both Nepalis and foreigners.
Chandragiri hilltop, located less than an hour's drive from Kathmandu, is a
captivating tourist destination rich in both natural beauty and cultural
significance. The entire length of all the great Himalayan mountain massifs can
be seen from the top of Chandragiri Nepal at 2500 km. A view tower with
binoculars is available for a better view. The great Annapurna, Nepal's
favorite trekking destination Mount Manaslu, the mighty Ganesh Himal, and then
the magnificent Langtang Himal run from west to east. A clear sky might even
allow one to see Mount Everest.

Bhaleshwar Mahadev
Lord Shiva is
one of the Hindu religion's three main gods. The Bhaleshwar Mahadev (temple)
has long been used to worship Lord Shiva. The mandir on top of the hill is
dedicated to Lord Shiva, and it is said that: “Sati Devi, Shiva's first
consort, gave her life at Daksha Prajapati's yagna after Daksha insulted Shiva
in front of other deities. Enraged by Sridevi's death, Shiva walked across the
world with her dead body on his back. Shiva's rage blinded him to the fact that
Satidevi's decaying body was falling apart. Sridevi's body parts were scattered
around the world. Later, pilgrimages were established at these locations. The
Bhaleshwor Mahadev temple is thought to have been built at one of these
locations, where Satidevi's brow ('Bhala') had fallen.”
