Kathmandu - Lower City
|
|
The area south of Bhimsen Temple to the Bagmati River is referred to as the "Lower City".
Sights in the Lower City are further apart than in the city center, and there is not as yet an established tourist "trail". So walks here are relatively free from the attentions of professional beggars and souvenir sellers. Be warned that the Lower City is sometimes a far cry from Nepal's show-piece best. Many of its sights, still very much in use and part of the everyday scene, are nevertheless in bad repair.
