Tour Details

This Nepal Hindu Pilgrimage Tour is great for finding out more about the cultures of Nepal.

Nepal is renowned for its rich cultural heritage and sacred pilgrimage sites. The country is home to well-preserved temples, monasteries, and historical monuments. Stepping into Nepal means entering a land of legends and mythology, with thousands of Hindu pilgrimage sites scattered across the country. Nepal is also blessed with stunning natural landscapes, including the majestic Himalayas, hills, and valleys.

The mountains are a major attraction, drawing pilgrims from Southern Asia and Tibet. Hindu holy men, easily identifiable by their attire, can be seen during significant occasions like Shiva Raatri, which attracts pilgrims from the Kathmandu valley. Pilgrimage sites such as Gosainkunda, Dudh Pokhari, Panch Pokhari, Muktinath, and other high mountain shrines are sacred to both Hindus and Buddhists. 

Janakpur, located in Nepal’s Terai region, is one of the oldest and most significant religious cities. It is the birthplace of Sita, the divine wife of Ram from the Hindu epic Ramayana. According to legend, King Janak discovered Sita in a field while plowing. The city is home to sacred sites such as the Janaki Temple, Dhanush Sagar, and Ram Sagar, holy ponds associated with the epic.

During Bibaha Panchami, a festival reenacting the wedding of Ram and Sita, pilgrims from all over visit Janakpur. Legend has it that Ram broke Shiva’s bow during the wedding, a piece of which fell at Dhanusha Dham. Janakpur is easily accessible via a direct flight from Kathmandu.
