1st Arrival In Nepal! $75 Palace Hotel Kathmandu 🇳🇵

My first time in Nepal! Join me on the journey to Kathmandu, Nepal!
After spending a lot of time in southeast Asia, it is now time for me to return to south Asia. I am going to Nepal. Join me on the journey from Kuala Lumpur Malaysia all the way to Kathmandu, the capital and biggest city of Nepal. This nation in south Asia is home to around 30 million people and known for the mount everest. I am keen to explore Nepal! The plan is to stay here for a couple of weeks, exploring Kathmandu and some mountain areas. After my arrival I checked in into a Palace Hotel. That was the description on Google Maps. I have nevcer heard the term palace hotel before, so I was quite curious.

I am Ken Abroad, a full-time traveler traveling southeast Asia, east Asia and south Asia. It is my goal here on the channel to visit every country in these Asian regions and bring you along the journey.
You won’t see many tourist places in my videos, I rather like to show the “real” sides of each country in my videos. Where do the local people go to eat? Where do they hang out? How do the locals travel through the country? Stuff like that.

Wow~ A 150-year-old Palace Hotel is really rare! Although the pictures on the Internet seem relatively large, but considering that he is 150 years old, I can comfort you not to be too sad! It is true that the dining etiquette is different in each country, but there are spoons and forks, you can really consider using them. I believe the audience can understand! Next time, try putting the rice in one bowl with side dish and step by step eating it, it will be easier to eat, and every grain of rice will not be wasted! Anyway, it is up to you! Don't know if anyone will agree with me, but I'm going to say it anyway, you are cute with glasses! Great job, thanks a lot for sharing. 👍😄🙏

[@arjunkc3227]

You can definately use spoons and fork to eat. Im nepali but never used my hands to eat rice. Usually a lot of people use hand to eat daal bhat. Like you said its not a good idea to dump everything at once you spoil the taste. I would use rice and little bit of daal and veggie and eat. But its upto you.

[@giannishen]

@@arjunkc3227 Well said! Thanks a lot for letting me know! You are very nice! 👍🥰🙏

[@pratik4157]

What an easy peasy journey/flight from Kuala Lumpur to Nepal. Great to have a glass of "teh tarik" before departure 😂😄 Wow, it's wonderful to know that hotel was once a palace...thanks for the interesting hotel/room tour. First experience with Nepali beer and local proper meal look amazing. Yeah, as you have been in Malaysia and Sri Lanka before, eating with hand isn't a problem for you. Good that you love the food and dessert. Love this 1st episode....interesting and entertaining to watch... cooooool content and thanks again for sharing with us, Ken.

[@markwiles9100]

Hello from Oregon, USA -- Thank-you for your interesting arrival video. My first trip to Nepal was in 1975 as a Peace Corps volunteer. At the time, the population of the country was 9.5 million people, and the population of Kathmandu just 180,000. There were very few private cars in those days and no motorcycles at all -- they didn't arrive until the 80s -- but many more bicycles and rickshaws. US$1.00 = rupees 12.45 and the hotel where we stayed was just 6 rupees a night with all you could eat dal bhat for 3 rupees. Most shops in town closed by 8:00pm with the streets quiet and people in their homes. The land around the central part of the city and on the way to Patan or Bhaktapur was mostly agricultural with clear air most days. I stayed for 3 years and it was a good time to be in Nepal. I look forward to following your adventures and to see the city and countryside from your perspective. Safe travels to you.

[@KenAbroad]

Sounds interesting, thanks for sharing 🙏

Hi Ken.... it's great again to tag along with you to Nepal, a country which l only know that it's the birthplace of Gautama Buddha and Mt. Everest, the highest mountain in the world, is there. Now, with your Nepal series, l'm going to see and learn more about this country. A big THANKS, Ken. Going to enjoy the 1st episode now...😄

[@KenAbroad]

[@piyush5835]

Hello Ken, I know I'm late to the party but would like to recommend something. When you're eating Nepali Thali, you can put all the bowls outside the plate and make space when eating rice. That way it doesn't feel congested and you can pour over lentil soups, chicken gravy or mix vegetables and pickles as much as you like.

[@rdaa9387]

[@turgonmiyantur5974]

Ken, I can understand what you're going through on the first day of arrival at a different country/place. Being a seasoned traveler, you know how tourism works everywhere; yet, in this peace and loving kingdom, there are kind souls that you will be encountering! Oh boy, what a lavish place you're staying at! Hahaha... enjoy our stay and discovery. I bet this is gonna be a Real Adventure! If you're heading to the mountains, just keep yourself warm, get some AMS medicine, and have good shoes and trekking pole; of course, get to know your guide first. Also, having battery charged up for your recordings is a must. And....... have fun with Mother Nature in the godly peaks :P Pokhara should be in your list. Both Hinduism and Tibetan Buddhism (especially the holy vibes at Boudanath) will be your highlights. The mountainous forest, the breathtaking awe, and the cultural villages (if you're not heading to the common trails) will be your foreground. Food should be interesting too in Thamel. For Buddhism discovery, you can opt for the Lumbini place which is faraway; for safari, head to the tropical jungles in Chitwan; and lastly, for some interesting classes on yoga, etc. Spirituality practice and visits to the Hindu temples and Buddhist monastery and audience with the reverence may be of your interest. Well, there's just too much to tell you about. Go discover them yourself and show us all your interesting findings and adventures. People in Nepal is very interesting too; in the villages, its a simple, happy and basic living! No rivalry from the modern world, but things are changing even in the villages now...tell me more if you're venturing to the sacred lakes/mountains; hope you found the Himalayan Tahr or Munal on the way ;)

[@KenAbroad]

Thanks for all these tips, amazing 🙏😊

[@turgonmiyantur5974]

@@KenAbroad You're welcomed pal. I forgot to say, stay safe too in the mountains (from the weather and hazards) and AMS. In towns, checkout the alleys and corners and the Durbar squares (but you have to pay, haha) and in a week, you're a local there ;) hehe... cheers! Can't wait to see more of your adventures in this Himalayan country. Meet Newaris, Tamangs, Sherpas, and many other people there. The cultural heritage and the link of the renowned Sagarmatha to humanity and the World is much to explore! Yup, let's see how much Love you get there now ;)
