Kathmandu is Famous for it's Culture and Heritage

Cultural and Heritage

We will help you plan an authentic culture and heritage trip to Nepal.

Wherever you are, festivals are the best ways to indulge yourself in the culture and heritage of that place. From simple, peaceful ceremonies to extravagant Jatras and celebrations, each festival has an essence and aura like no other. You can dress as a part of that culture, or simply be an out looker and enjoy your time there to the fullest. There are several opportunities for you to do so and we are here to help with that matter.

As you look towards participating in a festival of a different culture, in a different country, you need to be certain of the timing, location, and etiquette. In some cases, you might also need to know what to bring to the festival and be respectful of every culture. We, the Altitude Himalaya team, will help you figure out all the major cultural information of all important heritages around Nepal. That aside, we will also do our best to cover all renowned as well as lesser-known festivals around this Himalayan nation. So hold tight and join us as we explore the cultures and heritages in Nepal.
