Panauti is an attractive small town 32 kms east of Kathmandu. It was originally a small sate given by King Bhupatindra Malla as a dowry to his sister. It was integrated into the unified kingdom of Nepal at the end of 13th century. Panauti is situated in the confluence of two rivers, Rosi and Punyamati.
In the afternoon I paid a short visit to Kathmandu University. Their headquarters is situated in a very beautiful site in Dhulikhel, but they have campuses also in Kathmandu. Kathmandu University is a fairly new (est 1991) independent, not-for-profit, non-government public institution and third oldest university in Nepal.
In the evening we still had time for a short visit to Indrachowk, offering a true cultural experience of the Kathmandu bazaar.
