Why visit Lalitpur?
How to get to Lalitpur?
Top Things to do in Lalitpur:
1. Patan Darbar Square


2. Hiranya Varna Mahavihar


3. Patan Museum


4. Buy local art
Surrounding the Golden Temple, numerous art stores await. Some feature Buddhist monks actively painting within. While initial prices may be high (in my case they started at 300 euros), hone your negotiation skills for a rewarding experience.


5. Try Singing bowl therapy
Right next to the Golden Temple, you will find the Patan Singing Bowl and Therapy Centre.
Singing bowl therapy is a holistic practice using metal bowls to create soothing sounds and vibrations. Believed to promote relaxation and balance, it’s often used for stress reduction, improved sleep, and overall well-being.
You can also buy good quality singing bowls from the Therapy Centre.
