Welcome to the beautiful ancient city Bhaktapur. A place small in area yet rich and intact with best preserved heritages, lively culture and history, palace courtyards, temples and impressive arts and architectures. As the name suggests Bhakta means “devotee” and pur refers to “city” so this place is commonly known as city of devotees. Believed to have been settled in 12th century Bhaktapur retains wonderful medieval ambiance as most of the constructions and development of the monuments were done during that particular time of Malla dynasty. Bhaktapur is also one of the world heritage sites among the 7 heritage sites enlisted within Kathmandu valley by UNESCO. Join me on this virtual live tour through Bhaktapur.

Namaste!

My name is Monica and I am born and raised in Kathmandu. I have been working as a tour guide since  five years and this is the profession I always wanted to be in since my school-days because travelling, exploring and communicating with people from all around the world have always been my interest. I love to share my enthusiasm and passion with you and to share my knowledge about my country, culture, tradition, fascinating nature and many more. May it be the time of devastating earthquake or the present pandemic time I have always been hopeful about being back to normal and starting the passionate job I do.
