Kathmandu

Pashupatinath Temple, one of the holiest Hindu shrines in the world, stands on the banks of the sacred Bagmati River, where devotees come to pay homage and perform cremation rituals. Nearby, the stupa of Boudhanath, one of the largest stupas in Asia, serves as a spiritual center for Tibetan Buddhists, with pilgrims circumambulating its base in prayer.
