Another activity, which is turning to be quite a rage, is hot-air ballooning. Perched on a wicker basket, you can go as high as 3000m, flying above the Kathmandu valley. As if that isn't thrilling enough, you get a sweeping 360* view of the world beneath. Lush-green terraced hills stretch like a carpet for as far as the eyes can see. The eyes of Swayambhunath twinkle gently at you, a gilded temple spire glimmers in the morning sun, houses sit huddled together in peaceful harmony. And as your eyes look right, you see right before you the Majestic splendor of the Himalayan peaks. All of them stand up in the brilliance of the morning sun, as if to greet you. Suddenly time stands still. The one-hour fantasy flight gives you a lifetime of memories.
