Pause in the Garden of Dreams
Kaiser Mahal, Kathmandu, Nepal
The Garden of Dreams offers a sheltered pause close to Thamel’s busy streets. Restored pavilions, ponds and formal planting retain the character of the early twentieth-century Kaiser Mahal garden. Walk through the smaller garden spaces, then find a place to sit and enjoy the change of pace. It fits neatly into a day of shopping or old-city sightseeing, without requiring a long journey across Kathmandu or a packed afternoon itinerary.
