Kathmandu: Chandragiri Cable Car & Monkey Temple Tour

Experience the Chandragiri Cable Car and Monkey Temple Tour from Kathmandu. Enjoy panoramic views, explore the Bhaleshwor Mahadev Temple, and visit the Monkey Temple.
Begin your day with a ride on the Chandragiri Cable Car, a modern and comfortable way to reach the hilltop from the base station. The ride takes around nine minutes and offers breathtaking views of the forested slopes and valley below. The cable car cabins are spacious and provide clear visibility, allowing you to enjoy the scenery during the ride.

At the top station, be greeted with open spaces, a small garden area, and panoramic views that are perfect for photography and relaxation. From the hilltop, see mountains such as Annapurna, Langtang, and Ganesh Himal. The area is covered with pine and rhododendron forests, walking paths, and small viewpoints.

Next, visit the Bhaleshwor Mahadev Temple, a sacred Hindu shrine dedicated to Lord Shiva. This temple attracts devotees and visitors alike, who come to offer prayers, light lamps, and enjoy the calm spiritual environment. The temple area is surrounded by beautiful hills and walking paths, creating a peaceful setting for reflection.

After visiting Chandragiri, head to Swayambhunath, also known as the Monkey Temple. This is one of the oldest and most significant religious sites in Kathmandu. The temple is located on a small hill and is famous for its stupa, prayer wheels, and resident monkeys. From the hilltop, enjoy panoramic views of Kathmandu city and the surrounding valley.

The Monkey Temple is not only a spiritual site but also a center of culture and local life. Walk around the stupa, spin the prayer wheels, and observe traditional Buddhist rituals. The stupa is adorned with colorful prayer flags and has eyes painted on each side, which are considered to watch over the city. Surrounding the main stupa, there are small shrines, statues, and pagoda-style temples.
