Descripción

Discover a different side of Kathmandu on a tour of a Buddhist monastery. Learn from a resident monk, enjoy a guided meditation session, and explore the monastery grounds.
Begin with a convenient pickup from your hotel in Kathmandu, followed by a comfortable drive to a quiet monastery away from the city's hustle. As you arrive, notice the peaceful atmosphere created by fluttering prayer flags, spinning prayer wheels, and the gentle sound of monks chanting.

Meet a resident Buddhist monk and enjoy an open conversation where you're encouraged to ask questions about Buddhism, meditation, mindfulness, daily monastic life, and the values that guide their way of living.

After the discussion, take part in a guided meditation session suitable for everyone, whether you're trying meditation for the first time or already have experience. Learn simple breathing techniques and mindfulness practices that can easily be used in daily life. The peaceful surroundings make it an ideal place to disconnect from distractions and experience a genuine moment of calm.

Following the meditation, share a traditional cup of tea with the monk while continuing informal conversations about compassion, inner peace, happiness, and Buddhist philosophy.

Explore the monastery grounds, admire Buddhist artwork, colorful murals, sacred statues, and prayer halls while learning about their cultural and spiritual significance. Depending on the day's activities, you may even witness monks performing their daily prayers or chanting rituals.
