Events in Patan, Kathmandu
Heritage courtyards, cultural shows, and slow-travel events.
Patan — also called Lalitpur — keeps a slower rhythm than Kathmandu proper. Cultural performances spill out of restored Newari courtyards, art openings rotate through Patan Museum and Siddhartha Art Gallery, and heritage walks loop the Durbar Square almost every weekend.
