Why you shouldn't visit Nuwakot this year

It's rare that a travel writer says "don't go there!". But that's just what Nepal travel author David Ways recommends about Nuwakot this year ... and next year. Why? It's being torn down and rebuilt. The whole area is covered in scaffolding. Only those with a connection to Nuwakot, historians, or those who like ruins would have an interest in Nuwakot during this period. It's a difficult enough place to reach, let alone managing to get there only to find the fortress torn down.
