## About

The evening Aarati at Pashupatinath Temple is a captivating spiritual experience held along the banks of the Bagmati River. As the ceremony begins, devotees gather on the eastern side of the temple to witness this mesmerizing ritual filled with the chanting of Vedic mantras, ringing bells, glowing oil lamps, fragrant incense, and the soothing sounds of traditional music and devotional hymns, creating a truly enchanting atmosphere.

The Pashupatinath Aarati evening tour offers a meaningful way to connect with Nepal’s rich cultural and spiritual heritage. Starting in the late afternoon with a hotel pick-up in Kathmandu, the journey takes you to the sacred temple complex where a guided tour provides insights into its history and religious significance. You’ll then have some time to explore the surroundings before the Aarati ceremony begins.

Around 7 PM, priests perform the ritual by chanting prayers and offering lighted lamps to Lord Shiva, creating a deeply spiritual and visually beautiful experience. After the ceremony, you will be comfortably driven back to your hotel, concluding a memorable cultural evening.

Time of ceremony may change with season as it is performed after sunsets.
