Panauti is a small, quaint town 2hrs outside of Kathmandu. It is worth visiting if you are visiting Nepal for a longer stay and desire to see more of the country than just the main hot spots. If you plan to stay more than a day in Panauti, you will want to plan a day trip, which can be done with Community Homestay / the family. I did a 7hr walk to Noma Buddha, which was a wonderful way to see how families live beyond the main cities.

Impact on
Community
Panauti, a historical site in the outskirts of Kathmandu, had long been overlooked as a tourist destination. Because of few opportunities in the neighborhood, many choose to leave Panauti for school and work. Tourism was identified as a method to provide new opportunities for women and youth in Panauti, as well as provide revenue for community development.
The homestay provides an opportunity for Panauti's local women to assume greater responsibilities in the community. At Panauti community homestay, women are now able to communicate with foreign guests with the help of basic English classes provided to them. Solar panels have been installed, and the sanitation of the neighborhood has improved along with the personal hygiene of the local people. The promotion of handicrafts such as shoemaking is also fostered via the community homestay platform.
