Is five days in Nepal enough?
While there is a diverse range of things to explore in Nepal, five days may not be enough. But for someone with a time constraint or someone with limited vacation days who wants to explore Nepal, even two days can give you enough exploration to give you a perspective of the country. But how can you start planning your trip in Nepal for the next five days?First Day: Kathmandu Valley and Its Gems

Second Day: A Day Amidst The Nagarkot Hill Station

Third and Fourth Day: A Majestic Adventure To Pokhara

Finale Day
You might not know how fast time went, but here we are on the final day of your trip. You return to Kathmandu early and then make the most of the last day in the valley. The remaining architectural wonders of Bhaktapur and Patan Durbar Square have yet to be explored. You have to try the architectural wonders and some local food. When in the Durbar Square area, enjoy Newari food like bara, choila, and sekuwa. In addition, you can take your time to shop in the local shops. The goodies are interesting, and the cost is reasonable for tourists. Now, end your day with a dinner accompanied by Thakali cuisine and the bagful of memories you have created.How much money do you need per day in Nepal?
