Its one of the best historical place within Nepal. We can learn about history and culture which bring peace of mind.
It’s just next to the Military Museum and not far from Monkey Temple. I thought it was free. The result was 150 rupees. Although it’s not expensive, but the exhibits are really pitiful. Most of the Buddha statues constitute the main exhibition content. Haha mirrors and some wax statues have even become The protagonist makes people understand the difficulty and hardship of this poor country
The National Museum of Nepal, although there are not many exhibits, it is a condensed place of Nepal's cultural characteristics and it is worth visiting. There are not many tourists, the price is not expensive, you can slowly appreciate and experience!
Nepal is a good place, a country of mountains, with mountains that are almost everywhere right in front of your eyes, followed by valleys and rapids, and there are good places for drifting everywhere, where people enjoy the gifts of mountains.
