Kathmandu Night Life: The Best Clubs, Lounges, and Bars, Kathmandu, Nepal

I’m going to be honest and say that I’m not really big on going out late at night. I’m more of a snuggle up in bed and read a book kind of girl. However, I’ve been in Kathmandu long enough that I’ve frequented a few cool lounges (totally my scene) as well as a few clubs (my scene 5 years ago). A hand full of my Nepali friends love to go out and party, and some of them are DJs, so I tagged along a few nights while they showed me the best of Kathmandu night life.

It seems that in Kathmandu, the pre-party starts at 9:00pm or 10:00pm while the real parties don’t get going till midnight. So, if you’re planning to go out, make sure to hit a lounge or bar first and a club later in the evening because if you show up at the club at 10:00pm, you’ll be the only one on the dance floor.

BARC is located in an odd place due to its theme. It’s a speakeasy which means it’s supposed to be a secret bar. It’s located near the river between Kathmandu and Lalitpur in Tripureshwor. The building has a bunch of offices and you have to navigate your way to the top floor and pass through a door disguised as a mirror.
