ABOUT KATHMANDU
Kathmandu is the gateway to tourism in Nepal. It is also the nerve center of the country's economy. It has the most advanced infrastructure of any urban area in Nepal, and its economy is focused on
tourism. Kathmandu's sister cities (Patan and Bhaktapur) are integral to Kathmandu's cultural
heritage, tourism industry, and economy. Therefore UNESCO's World Heritage Site lists all three cities' monuments and attractions together under one heading, "Kathmandu Valley-UNESCO World Heritage Site"
