Valley / Nepal Wood Carving with a local wood craftsmanNext tentative Date: Available as a Private Trek on a date of your preference.
Chisel your own piece of heritage with a master in the heart of the Valley. |
Step into the quiet world of traditional Newar woodcarving with a local artisan whose family has practiced this sacred craft for generations. In a sunlit courtyard or centuries-old workshop, you’ll learn to handle chisels and mallets as you carve motifs like lotus petals, temple windows, or the protective ankhijhyal eyes seen on Kathmandu façades. The session offers not just hands-on skill, but insight into the philosophy and symbolism behind this UNESCO-recognized tradition. Take home your carved creation—a tactile souvenir of patience, detail, and deep-rooted culture.
