Ancient Kathmandu valley boasts of a considerably high number of cultural sites recognized by UNESCO as World Heritage Sites. All these sites are related to the spiritual traditions practiced in the region, which blend different cultures and lifestyles.

Besides the three cities, there are also a number of other important sites in the periphery of the mountains.
