About Kathmandu: Ason Market Walking Tour with Food Tastings
Begin your walking adventure right from your hotel in Thamel, the lively tourist hub of Kathmandu. With your local guide, stroll through narrow lanes filled with colorful shops, old buildings, and street vendors. As you approach Ason Market, one of the oldest and busiest trading centers in the Kathmandu Valley, the sounds and scents of local life surround you.
Ason Market has been the heart of Kathmandu’s commerce for centuries — an ancient crossroads on the old trade route connecting Tibet and India. The square is surrounded by traditional Newari houses, small temples, and spice shops that have stood here for generations. Locals still come here daily to buy rice, vegetables, clothes, and religious items.
Along the way, stop to taste local foods like spicy chana chatpate, samosa, bara (Newari lentil pancake), and sweet juju dhau yogurt. Your guide will explain the cultural meaning of each dish and share stories about Kathmandu’s traditions and street life. Continue your walk through Indra Chowk and the outskirts of Kathmandu Durbar Square, where you’ll see old shrines, hidden courtyards, and friendly local faces.
The tour ends with a refreshing cup of Nepali tea — a perfect finish to this authentic local experience.
