Savant Associates has unveiled mapmandu.com, the first online city-guide of Kathmandu. Mapmandu uses an interactive mapping engine to facilitate localized search of destinations in Kathmandu on a digitalized map. It provides the users with up-to-date online information and other extensive services on various aspects of city life in Kathmandu.

Mapmandu can be used by everyone as a comprehensive online directory of all destinations in Kathmandu. Users can navigate and pan through various levels of map or tap into Mapmandu's search to show local points of interest and their detailed information. Mapmandu combines satellite imagery, digital maps and search to put information on Kathmandu at your fingertips.

CEO of Savant Associates, Lokesh S. Shrestha, says Mapmandu is an attempt to organize and digitize information on various aspects of the city, and at the same time, have Kathmandu enthusiasts share their views and experiences on those aspects of city life.
