God Shiva and relation with cremation Place
Pashupatinath is one of the most famous temples for the Hindu people. There you can witness cremation of Hindu people on the bank of the river Bagmati.
The legend says, that the temple was built because many, many years ago, in the era of God SHIVA (God of Hemp/wish/destroyer), God Shiva was carrying the body of HER lover PARBATI and a part of HER (PARBATI) body fell here in this holy land. And hence this place is famous as the place of God Shiva.
There are many other intriguing stories about the history and the present day of this temple complex, which will be described in detail by your tour guide.
Boudhanath and Swayambhunath temple areas are respected sites mainly for the Buddhist. Boudhanath stupa has been an important place of pilgrimage and meditation for Tibetan Buddhists as well as local Nepalis for centuries. It is the focal point of the district, and there are tens of Tibetan Gompas (monasteries and nunneries) located around it, along with a variety of restaurants and shops. Swyambhunath temple has a history as a shelter of Bhutanese and Tibetan refugees.

All the Durbar Squares in the Kathmandu valley have a similar structure and architecture; they consist of temples, idols, open courts, and water fountains. The three most famous Durbar squares are the one in Kathmandu, Patan and Bhaktapur. The design used in the construction of the King’s palace (which durbar square? Patan?) And its ground with slates, is another eye catching view of squares.
