Bandipur- a national treasure

Bandipur is a medieval town considered a national treasure. Both, its location (between vallies and mountains) and its arquitecture (stone Newari houses with wooden carved windows and porches) make of this village a charming place. It is kindly surprising how such a nice town has scaped from the mass tourism and has chosen instead a sustainable tourism. There are no tourist shops or travel agencies, just a small information point and some guest houses that maintain the medieval asthetics of the area. This fact makes this place more magical.

Apart from its arquitectural beauty, this town is also surrounded by nature and some places to visit.
We have walked around town enjoying the shade of the millenial trees, we have visited the Sidha cave (the biggest in the Himalaya region) , we have gone up to Bandipur viewpoint and we have even played a football match with the children among the porches.

We are leaving Bandipur towards the natural park of Chitwan. See you soon!

Here you have pictures from Bandipur. Enjoy!
