In the sixties and seventies the quintessential journey of initiation of young West was to go to Kathmandu following an overland route. Another young Australians going to Europe by road, first by jumping from the north of Australia from island to island to Singapore, and thence by road to Europe, with stops mythical as Bangkok, Goa and especially Kathmandu. The well-known Lonely Planet guides born after a young Australians who were in Sydney to Londrs by land, and published a guide to the Asian part of your trip. There are many books that have been reported as was the experience as Kathmandu was the seventies. One fun, though in English, is Shopping for Buddhas. Kathmandu no longer even a shadow of what was in those years and the neighborhood classic Thamel, is more like a large shopping Torremolinos or tourism development, a place where you can also find one. In any case a city of great charm and where you can see monuments of great beauty, hiking in the nearby Himalayas or enjoy living with the Nepalese. A survivor of that era is the Kathmandu Guest House , with a nice garden, and rooms for all tastes. It is perhaps the most convenient connection for money in the tourist district of Thamel and has many facilities within the hotel, including a travel agency.
Traveling to Nepal is not dangerous, but it is always advisable to read the recommendations of the Ministries of Foreign Affairs and check before the political situation .
