About The Swayambhunath Temple
Swayambhu or Swoyambhu is an ancient religious architecture atop a hill in the Kathmandu Valley, west of Kathmandu city. There are around 300-400 steps if you are going by bus, or public transport. I personally love this place and enjoyed the time here, you can also view the entire Kathmandu city from the top point of the temple. Try to go in the morning and there is an entrance fees of Rs 50 if you are Indian & Rs200 if you are from abroad.
