Indeed there aren’t many world capitals in which you can ride a horse, visit a nomadic family, and enjoy fine dining and luxurious spa treatments all in the same day.This easy walking tour takes you to the highlights of this bustling city including famous Buddhist heritages, the main square and the best 2 museums in town.
