Volunteer in Bhaktapur Nepal - Volunteering Abroad Opportunities
Volunteer Abroad in Bhaktapur Nepal: is an ancient city in the Kathmandu Valley, renowned for its elegant art, fabulous culture and colorful festivals. Known as Nepal’s “Open museum", the city is closed to all cars, taxi, rickshaws and is a true walkers paradise. Although Bhaktapur is less than 10 miles from Kathmandu, it gives off a feeling of ancient times given the ambiance of traditional homes, temples, and peaceful environment.
Bhaktapur has more temples per square foot than both Patan or Kathmandu, and is listed as a Worlds Heritage site listed by the UNESCO. Visitors can spend hours wandering the small winding streets and outdoor squares such as the Durbar Square, a fascinating structure of palace having 55 windows, and now home to the National ional Art Gallery.
With its serene atmosphere, friendly people and ancient traditions, Bhaktapur is a magical place to visit and volunteer. Take a step back in time, volunteer in Nepal.

* To be successful volunteering with a local NGO you need to be able to motivate yourself. Regardless of the country and program, to get the most out of your time abroad you need to quickly get to know the placement.
Find out where you can be of the most help and jump right in. Sometimes you might be the only person working on your particular project. You will have to decide what to do and how to do it. While our ABV Directors and local staff are a great resource for getting ideas and talking about your plans, you shouldn't be surprised when they leave the big decisions up to you. Successful ABV Volunteers all have one thing in common: they take advantage of this freedom to design really excellent projects or manage existing ones and are capable of working hard without a great deal of supervision.
