Trip Begins: Take a scenic drive to Dhulikhel and explore the area

Guided Tour of Namobuddha Monastery:
After your hike, you will be exploring the Namobuddha monastery, also known as Thrangu Tashi Yangtse Monastery. The monastery is a Tibetan Buddhist monastery that lies at the top of the hill in Namobuddha Municipality.

According to the old legend, 6000 years ago, a prince (Mahasatwo/Ngingdui Tshenpo), at the top of the hill, looking at the jungle, discovers a tigress lying near the rock. Very quickly, he realises that the tigress was about to die due to hunger with her five little babies still sucking milk from her and the survival of the babies depended on their mother. Mahasatwo, decides to give his life to the tigress in a bust of love and compassion. So Prince Mahasatwo cuts his body to present his warm blood in the mouth of the mother tiger, and the taste of blood gives the appetite to the starving family.

After your completer your visit to Namobuddha Monastery, you will be dropped back to your hotel in the late afternoon.
