Thamel is a limelight of Kathmandu city for lifestyle and fun. The local area is vibrant with all the markets, souvenirs, foods, and music. Usually filled with tourists, the streets get pretty much busy during the evening as everything moves in a rush. The day is quite normal for ones to roam around taking their time to look around the shops. Mostly preferred by tourists as this place is silent during the night than the rest of the places of the towns. Moreover, you can get whatever you want in Thamel. It's a buzz-town of Kathmandu city.
The decorative rickshaws are the ones carrying you around the street. It's the busy narrow roads and interconnected junctions that make it feel stranded alone. In that case, you can have a ride on the rickshaws
Thamel is well known for local-made souvenirs, trekking gear, and jewelry. Decorative handicrafts hanging around the street engage you to look and even touch around if permission. It calls you in to look it around that you can stop touching them. Won't you like to play with one such?
The daily hustle-bustle of the area drives in the street. The center gets busier as people come from around the places. Street foods are everywhere around the street corners. From western to locals, the street foods are the main buzz of Thamel. Usually, after 4 pm as the work-day comes to an end, these streets food get surrounded by the passers-by. Streets food are of hygienic concern for many, while many local people take it easy on these foods
The street junctions are crowded many times often. Growing population and vehicles in the streets have congested the town. But there are streets in Thamel where you cant enter big vehicles. Local rickshaws are of such help there. By now, you might have already noticed tangled wire. It's one biggest problems in the street. But, the vibrant street with banners, clothes, and alluring store lights overshadow them
Modern architects are more filled with hotels, discotheques, lively restaurants, and some spas. People coming from trek come here to chill, have fun, and spend some quality time. If you walk in the street during the evening the area echoes in music. It makes you keep wandering around the street. These architectures hold places for your fascinated dine, and some recreational fun as dance, and drinks
Thamel is filled with old-tall homes. Most of the stores are still in old-brick homes. It looks really cool. I love them with different essence though they look fearsome to many under different perspectives. The congestion of these homes has resulted in the creation of much more gullies. If you go wandering, make sure you know where to move to. Because you are likely to get lost if you have to enter Thamel and find a way. The main chowks are mostly the center meeting multiple roads in the point. These chowks are in dozens around the Thamel area. You want to take a rest here as well and look around the places. It's another world.
I have lost multiple times, but the centers will help you get through the way. If you keep encircling in the streets and don't find these you are likely to get lost. Oh, you have the map on phone but still, it's likely to confuse you in multiple instances.
The roaming around Thamel street calls you in. It makes you keep going, exploring foods, and looking into different houses, shops, and stores. It's vibrant!!
