Namobuddha Monastery in Nepal is a peaceful and spiritual experience. Located about 40 km southeast of Kathmandu, it’s one of the most important Buddhist pilgrimage sites in the country. Here are some helpful suggestions to make your visit meaningful and smooth.
I had a great day. The view was mesmerizing and I entered into monastery a shrine hall which was peaceful and the statue of lord buddha was just Amazing. I definitely recommend to visit this place
Monastery is on the hill so pay transfer the most up or be prepared a climb a bit. Monastery with thousands buddha is nice inside, but no photo allowed. No entrance fee. There are 2 vistas: inside the monastery ať the top of white stupa and second is with path from this stupa to small top of hill to see the himalaian massive with the monastery.
best place for peace of mind. one of the unique buddhist monastery . best place to see 360 degree view around. amazing location wonderful visit .
“Thrangu Tashi Yangtse Monastery” or”Namo Buddha Monastery” is a Tibetan Buddhist monastery about 40 km southeast of Kathmandu Valley. It lies at the top of the hill in Namo Buddha Municipality. According to legend, 6000 years ago Prince Mahasatwo (also known as Ngingdui Tshenpo) discovered a starving tigress and her five cubs. To save the lives of the tigers, Mahasatwo cut his body so that the warm blood drew the tigress to him. The tigress ate the prince and left only his bones. The bones of the prince were brought back to the village and buried in a tomb which became the stupa of Namo Buddha.
Such a wonderful place! So beautiful, attended the 6am prayers, this place irradiates peace and beauty 🙏🏼
Recently stayed here for 4 nights and was immersed in the Buddhist way of life. Puja twice a day with the monks as well as the dining experiences with them was fantastic. The food was tasty and the room was clean and comfortable. Spectacular views looking out to the Himalayas also and with the luscious valleys below. A lovely experience.
Another magical place. Don’t spend $300 on a tour for one night stay. Take. Us, taxi or hike and reserve one night or more at the monastery .

February 2024: Though it's a lot lesser than a "1000 steps", it's still not an easy climb! But it's definitely worth a visit. The views are spectacular! And it's such a nice temple! 🙏🕉️🙏 (Plus, there's a lot of other interesting things to see on the way up to the temple.)
I loved the journey there more than the destination which is “the Kali temple”. We had to make it through “1000 steps” before reaching the top and we expected it to be tough but don’t worry it’s pretty easy, takes about 30 minutes starting from the gate. Would have loved to visit the Buddha statue too but it was locked and when we asked a local they said it opens after 10am only but the sign said 7am so that was sad. The way was so serene and peaceful 🍃

I love the energy of this place. To reach the temple you have to climb the 1,000 steps stairway. The temple has a very holy energy. It is one of the main pilgrimage temples of the country. Humble in its structure it is very intense in energy. Me and my wife we felt really blessed here. The views from the top of the mountain are beautiful.
Great place for hiking in dhulikhel . People can travel through car , bikes if they're not much of hiking person . The view especially from the top of hill is great . There is lot of things to do after you reach the top like swinging , horse ride too . Great for the people who loves dry picnic and picnics too . Also this place is picnic spot so there will be lots of noises of music playing too which disturbs the sound of natures.
I love this place. Morning walks at the early morning to see sunrise from 1000 sidi is refreshing. After morning walk, to have Jeri-swari and Pongs with milk tea is heaven in a plate and a glass 😊. Such a beautiful place to be- Dhulikhel
A great spot for the views on Dhulikhel and its surroundings. The temple itself is rather small. The viewtower is closed due to structural damage but the platform around the temple gives enough viewing opportunities to make the climb worthwhile.
Beautiful location . Very closed to city but still so quiet and peaceful. The walking trail is fantastic and well maintained. You can go drive also but walking will be more worthy. On the way back you can see a buddha statue which is also attractive and from where you can see dhulikhel City area. Morning and evening time will be best so that you can see sunrise ore sunset. Love this place
