Mr. Santisuk Klongchaiya, CEO of Thai AirAsia, said: “AirAsia is always looking to expand its network to exciting destinations, and Nepal is one of the most popular not only among Thai travelers but also visitors from across the globe looking to experience the majestic views, culture, and the World Heritage architecture that Nepal has to offer. It is of course a top pick for adventure and mountaineering enthusiasts.Â
Nepal is a must-visit destination renowned for its rich cultural heritage and breathtaking natural beauty. Visitors can explore the iconic Swayambhunath, a temple complex adorned with the Buddha’s eyes of wisdom, gazing out in all four directions from its central stupa. This site not only offers spiritual insights but also provides travelers with panoramic views of Kathmandu. Another significant landmark is Boudhanath, Nepal’s largest pagoda, which was recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1979. Lumbini, the birthplace of Gautama Buddha, is a pilgrimage destination for Buddhists worldwide, while Kathmandu Durbar Square and the ancient city of Bhaktapur offer a glimpse into the region’s millennia-old history.
For nature lovers, Nepal’s diverse terrain offers some of the world’s most stunning landscapes. In the nearby city of Pokhara, adventurers can visit the famous Annapurna Base Camp (ABC) and experience the serene beauty of Phewa Lake before embarking on a journey to Everest Base Camp (EBC), a top destination for thrill-seekers.
AirAsia has expanded its network to include 16 routes to South Asia, connecting travelers to vibrant cities such as Jaipur, Bengaluru, Lucknow, Kolkata, Chennai, Kochi, Gaya, Ahmedabad, Guwahati, Visakhapatnam, Tiruchirappalli, Hyderabad, Dhaka, Colombo, the Maldives, and now Kathmandu. With a total of 87 flights a week, AirAsia continues to offer convenient and affordable travel options across this culturally rich region.
