Nepal and Kathmandu
The beginning of a journey from Kathmandu to Lhasa overland. First stop at the three cities of the Kathmandu Valley: Kathmandu, Patan and Bhaktapur.

Patan
Patan is a separate city from Kathmandu. The short walk from Kathmandu to Patan goes through narrow alleys leading to quiet courtyards and old temples.
-
Bhaktapur
Bhaktapur has all the pleasure of a small and familiar centre with the advantages of a city. It has impressive historic areas and is close to Kathmandu.

Kathmandu to Lhasa overland – Day 1
To go from Kathmandu to Lhasa, overland, you have to use a tour operator because travelling in Tibet is very tightly controlled. I found a five-day option.
