Eid in NEPAL - Day 1

Are you guys excited to go to Nepal? Yeayyyy.. me too. Our flight is at noon, but look at all the sleepy face hehehe. We took an early morning bus from our hometown which took 4~5 hours drive to KLIA2 and arrived around 6am in the morning. Very tired mah.... TT__TT

Sleepy, early rise in the morning at KLIA2

World Best Low Cost Airlines, AirAsia "Now, everyone can fly~~~" is our flight choice to Kathmandu, Nepal. This is my 1st time in KLIA2. The place was huge... no more last minute arrive at the airport, since we need to walk for 30 - 50 minutes to our departure gate from entrance gates. T0T really far..huhuhuhu. 

The plane ride was comfortable & a bit bumpy when hit the cloud, the food is good. When we enter Nepal airspace, you can see beautiful mountain, hill & river view so magnificent from the window. It took 6 hours to arrive from Malaysia. 

Bonus: There is a handsome korean male flight attendant <3 <3 <3

Landed!! Nepal, im HERE^^

Mountain view from airport, Kathmandu is surrounded by it.

As soon as we landed, its photo time!!^0^

We were greet by our tour guide & driver from HolidayNepal.com at the airport & took us to our own choice of hotel. Shangri-La Boutique Hotel nearby Thamel Street (famous shopping district). The place was quite, peaceful, nice & cosy. No elevator, luckily our room is at groud floor T0T. The staff were helpful, available to speak english fluently & even chinese too.

After we finish check in, our guide took us to Patan Durbar Square which is situated at the centre of Lalitpur City. Patan Durbar Square is one of the 3 UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Kathmandu. Check wikipedia for more information... My cousin is a photographer & he said Nepal is like a heaven to them with a lot of exotic, unique & scenic scene to capture.

Then we move to our next location which is Swayambhunath Temple or known as Monkey Temple is an ancient religious complex atop a hill in the Kathmandu Valley, west of Kathmandu city. It is known as the Monkey Temple as there are holy monkeys living in the north-west parts of the temple.

Wishing well, make a wish.. throw syiling to bowl then your wish will come true.

Highlight of the visit!! Monkey swimming pool \ ^0^ / There is a lot of tons monkey there, please be careful & dont give them anything. Here is Monkey pool, where the monkey play, swimming, dive leisurely. Its very fun & entertaining to watch them^^

You can go check on my instagram, @nody_meow for insta vid of their playful swimming. Serious! Freakin, adorable cutie <3

From entrance, we need to climb for main temple

The main temple, my sis keep saying she watched documentary about this place at National Geographic. 

#np Rain - Rain, is falling down! LOL

On top of the hill, the view of Kathmandu was breathtaking, sadly the moment we arrived.. rain started to poured down. So no more pic & this is the end of our day 1 tour. During our trip, its the raining season in Nepal, July to August. My driver recommend  to visit Nepal for best season in March & November.

During our drive in Kathmandu city, below photo left a deep impression for us. A bunch of tangled cable & still people can lived comfortably with it. Please noted, that Nepal at night always blackout. No electricity, people usually used their own generators at night. Dont worry, mostly hotel has their own generators too... make sure you charge your phone, camera asap when electricity is available, bring your own plug extension if you have a lot of electronic device to charge.
