Namo Buddha Hiking

Namo Buddha is a small village placed atop a stunning hill, complete with a well-preserved Buddhist monastery. Thrangu Tashi Yangtse Monastery is a major pilgrimage site for Nepali Buddhists. It provides a 360-degree view of the Kathmandu Valley. It is located southeast of Kathmandu at an elevation of 1,750m/5,741ft, along with Banepa and Panauti. It is 38 kilometers from Kathmandu.
