With vast views of the Himalayas, just one hour from Kathmandu airport, Dwarika\u2019s Sanctuary offers an introduction to Himalayan wellbeing rooted in a profound sense of place.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Set on a hillside above Dhulikhel, Dwarika\u2019s Sanctuary draws on Hindu and Buddhist ways of life practised in the region for thousands of years, inviting guests to experience traditions that have shaped approaches to wellbeing around the world. Paired with the original Dwarika\u2019s Hotel in Kathmandu, it offers a rich immersion into Nepali lifestyle and culture, both traditional and modern.<\/p>\n

Dwarika\u2019s Sanctuary puts Nepal firmly on the luxury wellness map, offering an experience rooted in Himalayan wellbeing traditions and philosophies. Whether guests stay for three days or three weeks, they leave feeling rested, restored and curious to discover more. This year, the Sanctuary launched a programme of three-night retreats, inviting travellers to take a deep dive into the wellbeing practices and lifestyle of the Nepali people.<\/p>\n

Set on terraced slopes with glorious views of the Himalayas and surrounded by forests and fields, Dwarika\u2019s Sanctuary showcases this richly intricate heritage with a real sense of place. Yoga and meditation can be practised around the world, but here they are experienced in the valley where Hinduism and Buddhism converge, with the cloud-smudged Himalayas high on the horizon. From Ayurvedic therapies, yoga and meditation to Buddhist practices and monastery treks, the retreats tap into five millennia of philosophy to provide an atmospheric primer on Himalayan wellbeing.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Ren\u00e9 Vijay Shrestha Einhauss, CEO of The Dwarika\u2019s Collection, states: \u201cMost people come to Nepal for the mountains and leave having only seen them. Dwarika\u2019s Sanctuary is for those who want to feel what the Himalayas have known for a thousand years: that much of what the world now calls wellness is rooted in the symbiosis of Hindu and Buddhist traditions. Whether you\u2019re a spa connoisseur, someone coming down from a trek, or flying in from Singapore or Hong Kong for a long weekend, you\u2019ll experience Himalayan wellbeing the way it is lived, in an environment that lets you enter that state naturally.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kathmandu \u2013 where the story begins<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

The Dwarika\u2019s hotel was founded in the early 1970s by Dwarika Das Strestha, who saw it as a way of preserving the centuries-old Newari architecture that was being torn down at the time, along with the country\u2019s artisanal skills. Over the years, he built the hotel using pillars and windows, doors and carved eaves rescued from around the Kathmandu Valley \u2013 a project that has been continued by his family ever since. Life at The Dwarika\u2019s revolves around the courtyard, where gods, demons and animals prowl in the carved woodwork all around and robed flutists perform in the evening before dinner.<\/p>\n

Now overseen by Ren\u00e9 Vijay Shrestha Einhauss, the founder\u2019s grandson, The Dwarika\u2019s offers a distinctive base from which to explore Kathmandu and its traditions. During a one- or two-night stay before continuing to Dwarika\u2019s Sanctuary, guests can settle into the city over tea with Ren\u00e9 Vijay, as he shares the story of his grandfather, Dwarika Das Shrestha, and his vision for preserving Nepal\u2019s architectural heritage. Guests can also join master carvers for a hands-on woodcarving experience, learning the traditional techniques behind the intricate details that define Newari architecture. Visits to nearby temples, the Buddha Stupa and the UNESCO Heritage Sites of Bhaktapur and Durbar Square. These encounters introduce guests to the traditions and philosophies that underpin the wellbeing experience at Dwarika\u2019s Sanctuary, where Hindu and Buddhist practices remain rooted in everyday Nepali life.<\/p>\n

But The Dwarika\u2019s Collection is also keen to join the dots between Nepal\u2019s historic traditions and its newly dynamic contemporary culture. Guests are invited to visit recently opened galleries where young artists are reinterpreting traditional painting and sculptural motifs, go shopping with Ren\u00e9\u2019s wife Shavona, who runs her own ethical fashion brand, and dine at the restaurants reimagining Newari cuisine. Kathmandu is emerging as one of Asia\u2019s most vital and vibrant cities \u2013 a destination in its own right rather than simply a staging post for trekking adventures.<\/p>\n

What is Himalayan wellbeing?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Over the past few years, the global wellness conversation has centred around longevity, and all the hi-tech biohacking therapies and biometric tracking that it entails. Dwarika\u2019s Sanctuary represents a return to a more soulful and spiritual form of wellness. Nepal, after all, was the birthplace of the Buddha, and his descendants still live in and around the Kathmandu Valley \u2013 a surprising fact to many outsiders. This part of the world was also the birthplace of many of today\u2019s wellness concepts, and Dwarika\u2019s Sanctuary seeks to present them alongside their original spiritual outlook \u2013 a connection that is often lost in Western interpretation.<\/p>\n

During a stay at Dwarika\u2019s Sanctuary, guests will consult the resident Ayurvedic doctors, receive blessings and take part in experiences rooted in a way of life practiced In Nepal for thousands of years, where Vedic and Buddhist traditions come together as the foundation of so much of the world\u2019s wellness. The wellness philosophy is based on Pancha Kosha, a Hindu teaching that understands wellbeing through five interwoven layers: the physical body (Annamaya), energy (Pranamaya), mind (Manomaya), insight (Vijnanamaya) and bliss (Anandamaya). At Dwarika\u2019s Sanctuary, this understanding becomes practice through therapies, spaces and rituals shaped by Himalayan nature, allowing wellbeing to unfold naturally through sound, movement, silence and the surrounding environment.<\/p>\n

As well as enjoying Himalayan wellbeing treatments \u2013 from hot-stone therapy to Shakti renewal journey, Panchakosha NewarI massage and more \u2013 guests can join the resident priest\u2019s morning nine-planet balancing ritual, a regular spiritual practice focused on planetary alignment for the day. Other experiences include yoga with a mountain panorama, a chakra sound-therapy chamber and breathwork in a house made from mineral-rich Himalayan rock salt. A Shiva Lingam meditation walk session in the meditation maze which is inspired by Pashupatinath Temple (labyrinth), devoted to Lord Shiva. Separately, a visit to a nearby Buddhist monastery leads to an informal lunch with the monks and a conversation with the khenpo (the monastery\u2019s Buddhist scholar), with the chance to talk about their way of life.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn Nepal, many of the practices the world now calls wellness have never been treatments. They have simply been part of life. At Dwarika\u2019s Sanctuary, guests experience this Himalayan approach to wellbeing where it belongs: a meditative walk through the Shiva Linga maze, breathwork in the Salt House, time with the monks at Namobuddha, or simply rest,\u201d says Vijay-Ren\u00e9.<\/p>\n

Dwarika\u2019s Sanctuary<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Located just outside Dhulikhel, a historic town on the Tibetan trading route, Dwarika\u2019s Sanctuary is set across various bungalows set on hillsides forests, with terraces, garden decks and lounges offering Himalayan and sunset views. Every space has been designed to bring guests as close to nature as possible. Bedrooms are positioned for the morning light and furnished with locally made fabrics and linens. Curtains are adorned with rudraksha beads, associated with Lord Shiva and traditionally believed to ward off negative energy.<\/p>\n

The ethos of being locally and organically sourced permeates into every nook and corner of Dwarika\u2019s Sanctuary, from the sustainably sourced timber, handmade bricks and bamboo used to build the retreat to the natural fabrics, such as jute and hemp, used to furnish it. The smallest details of a stay are considered with the same care as the larger experience, with in-room amenities such as soaps, body creams and shampoos made in-house and inspired by Nepal\u2019s rich botanical heritage, using ingredients including Himalayan salts, black rice, rhododendron and fenugreek, along with essential oils and plant extracts. Some of the herbs used are grown on our own farm, keeping us closely connected to the land and to the ingredients we work with.<\/p>\n

It is this connection \u2014 between the land, the ingredients, the craft and the guest\u2014makes these simple details distinctly Dwarika\u2019s. This flows into the dining experiences at the Sanctuary\u2019s three restaurants \u2013 Nature\u2019s Flavours for global dishes, Mako\u2019s for Omakase Japanese and Ananta Poolside for fusion cuisine\u2013 which all use produce grown on Dwarika\u2019s six organic farms around Nepal to create nourishing, unadulterated and flavoursome cuisine. The second-largest is Darimbot Farm, which guests can hike to on a gentle trail through terraced fields and forested paths, to help with the harvest, tour the orchards and fields, and sit down to a lunch prepared by the farmers themselves following the philosophy of fresh, local, organic, seasonal. Like the rest of the Dwarika\u2019s experience, it succeeds in providing a true taste of the Himalayas.<\/p>\n

Rates for a wellness break combining a stay at Dwarika\u2019s Hotel in Kathmandu and a three-day retreat at Dwarika\u2019s Sanctuary start at approx 3802 USD for solo travelers and 4750 USD for two entry-level rooms during the peak season.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
