Answer 2

What shall I tell about it......

Well, it is a old city. Legend has it that in ancient times the city( rather I should say Valley) was a lake. Manjushri Boudhistwa, a legendary Buddhist God came to Kathmandu, and drained away the water, making it inhabitable. He did so, by cutting a hill at a point called "katuwal Daha", the place is presently known as Chobhar and is located around 10km far  form the Kathmandu downtown of Thamel.  

In kathmandu, you may not find "THE NYC SPIRIT", but I guarantee, you'll really rediscover south asia once you be here. If you want to know more about the lives of people here, read the book, "Arresting God in Kathmandu" by Samrat Uphadhay.
