Kathmandu is a great place. I would probably only visit for short periods as the busyness and crowds are pretty hectic. As well the air pollution is quite bad at times. Lots to see and do. Many great places to eat.

5/5 - Excellent

What an amazing and chilled place. The locals are all friendly and helpful but the traffic is horrendous at times. However, you just go with the flow.
