Yoga & Culture Retreat in Nepal, May 1st – May 12th, 2026
Discover the Beauty of Nepal
Immerse yourself in the breathtaking landscapes and rich cultural heritage of Nepal with this unique Yoga & Culture Retreat. From the spiritual heart of Kathmandu to the peaceful lakes of Pokhara and the sacred birthplace of Buddha in Lumbini, this journey is designed to rejuvenate your mind, body, and soul.
Begin Your Journey
Our adventure starts in Kathmandu, (KTM) Nepal’s vibrant capital, where you’ll settle in and enjoy a relaxing dinner with breathtaking rooftop views. We’ll explore the UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including the famous Swayambhunath (Monkey Temple), Boudhanath Stupa, and Pashupatinath Temple.
Then, we fly to Pokhara, a picturesque lakeside town with stunning Himalayan views. Enjoy tranquil boat rides, visits to sacred caves and waterfalls, and the awe-inspiring sunrise from Sarangkot. Our time here includes daily yoga sessions, providing balance and serenity amid nature’s beauty. We have reserved the hotel’s Taal & Taal lakeview restaurant for our group.
A Retreat to Remember
The journey continues with a short flight to Lumbini, the birthplace of Buddha. Here, you’ll experience deep spiritual connection while visiting the Maya Devi Temple and the World Peace Pagoda. The retreat culminates with a relaxing stay in Budhanilkantha, a peaceful area in Kathmandu at the foothills of Shivapuri National Park, known for its serene environment and spiritual significance.
