Himalayan International Epilepsy Conference

In mid-September, Kathmandu's post-monsoon air is clear and the mountains peek out from the clouds, making the city's stupas and temples especially photogenic between sessions. Take a short walk from the Radisson to the Garden of Dreams for a quiet pause, and be sure to try a steaming plate of momos or a cup of local chiya from a nearby stall. The mild, dry weather is ideal for exploring the bustling streets and returning to the conference refreshed.
