Kathmandu

Destination

Kathmandu

Kathmandu is one of the world's most spiritual cities, filled with stupas, palace squares, and incense smoke. This is where the Blue Diamond Society is based — one of South Asia's most progressive LGBTQ+ organisations — and Nepal's legislation protects queer rights better than most countries in the region.
