Shivapuri, an exciting one day trek, passes through the Budhanikanatha temple. An uphill climb from Budhanikanatha towards the Shivapuri hill is endearing among the blooming rhododendrons in the spring season and mountain views are rarely missed. Various flowers like orchid and pitula are abundant. Travelers may be able to spot deers and monkeys in the conservation area as well. Different kinds of bird species are plentiful for bird lovers. The wildlife sighting here is also excellent as the park has access to wider lans and areas behind Kathmandu Valley. At the top of the hill, you will be at a Budhhist monastery. The comprehensive views of Northeast side of Kathmandu as well as majestic Himalayas in the north are the notable attractions of this hill station.
