Begin your journey in Kathmandu and travel to Tokha, a historic Newari town known for its preserved traditions and local lifestyle. Every Saturday, the town becomes a bustling fair where locals gather to sell homemade foods, seasonal produce, spices, pickles, and handmade goods.

A key highlight of this experience is learning about beaten rice (chiura)—a traditional Nepali staple. Observe how it is prepared, processed, and used in daily meals and cultural settings, giving you insight into one of Nepal’s most important food traditions.

As you walk through the market with your guide, sample local snacks, interact with vendors, explore heritage alleys, and visit small temples that reflect centuries of Newari culture. This is a deep cultural immersion into everyday life in the Kathmandu Valley.
