Hotel Vajra
Vajra first of all offers an architectural feast harmonising
beauty and practicality. Doors and windows designed and carved
by Utam Raj of Patan, who descends directly from the carvers of
the great Durbars of Kathmandu Valley.
Ceiling frescos of the Great Pagoda Room painted by Rinchen
Norbu, the great Tibetan Master, wall frescos in the restaurant
are painted by Bimal Moktan the outstanding Tamang Painter, are
some of the features you will discover here. The site itself,
near the powerful Bijeswori temple complex, from which the area
derives its name, stands on the age-old pilgrim's road to
Swayambhu.
On any early morning you may join the pilgrims, Nepali, Tibetan,
Bhutanese. In fact you may see a Buddhist from any part of the
world on their ascent to the great two thousand years old Stupa
which offers an extraordinary panorama of the sacred Valley and
the high Himalayas.
The Rooftop Gardens of the hotel provides a magnificent morning
or sunset panorama of the snowy peaks of the Himalaya, looking
directly on the Pagodas of Durbar Square (Center of medieval
Kathmandu) and up to the Swayambhu Stupa. A twenty minute's walk
takes you to each. |
