Overview

Let’s visit to the Pashupatinath temple, one of the most sacred and oldest Hindu temples in the world. Our expert guides, with a Ph.D. in Tangible and Intangible Heritages of Pashupatinath and experts under his supervision, will lead the tour. You will learn about the religious and cultural practices within the temple premises, including a visit to the Hindu crematorium. Our guide will explain everything from mythological values to the present-day status of Hinduism logically and scientifically like no other in the industry can do, so you will have a deeper understanding of the values and beliefs of the temple area as well. Along the way, we will pass through the vibrant and celebratory part of the temple, leading up to the crematoria, which will give us a practical understanding of the sanctity of life. We will also witness the Bagmati river bank aarti, a beautiful and energetic offering to Shree Pashupatinath. Join us for an enlightening and unforgettable experience.
