Bagmati Province is Nepal's cultural and political heartland, home to the ancient Kathmandu Valley and seven UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The province encompasses the cities of Kathmandu, Lalitpur (Patan), and Bhaktapur, each with their own majestic Durbar Squares, along with sacred Hindu temples, Buddhist stupas, and trekking routes into the high Himalayas.
