PANORAMIC
MOUNTAIN VIEW
Toni Hagen, A Swiss geologist who traveled extensively in
Nepal, has wri Swiss geologist who traveled extensively in Nepal, has
written “ Pokhara area shows the
greatest contrast in landscape. Nowhere in the world can be highest mountains
reaching 8000 meters level be admired from such small distance and from the
tropical low land without any intermediate mountain ranges. Pokhara is
certainly one of the most extra ordinary and beautiful places in the world”.
No place in the world offers such
view of the Nepalese Matterhorn , Machha Puchhre ( Fish Tail) and Annapurna
from such close distance.
LAKES
The reflection of snowcapped high
mountains of Annapurna Range and Mt . Fishtail on the surface water of the
Phewa Lake creates unprecedented scenery for all visitors . Phewa Lake , the
second largest lake in Nepal, having area of around 5 sq km. is the center of
many attractions in Pokhara. The enchanting lake is an idyllic playground.
Brightly painted wooden boats and sailboats can be rented on reasonable cost
around lakeside. Lekhnath Municipality area popularly known as garden of seven
lakes, 15km east from Pokhara , is worth visiting. Begnas and Rupa Lakes are
major ones/ Medicinal and herbal plants as well as the sub tropical green
forest around this area makes the surrounding atmosphere more hygienic &
colourful. It takes about 20 minutes to drive over there. Other lakes like
Dipang, Maidi , Khaste, Neurant and Gunde are small in size but consist high
potentiality for entertaining purposes, fishing , butterfly / bird watching and
herbal plants . Dipang Lake is so peculiar , recreational and tranquil that it
is called a “ Honeymoon Lake”. Morever , there is Pipara lake situated in the
lap of Mt Fishtail
SETI RIVER
It is a mysterious wonder of
Pokhara . Originated from the Machhapuchhre glacier, Seti ( which means White Water) river runs through the main city
area in about 40 meters of depth . The river provides a perfect view of its
dread rush before it disappears into a deep gorge at Bagar and Ramghat. Even
the gorge is visible from different parts of the city, K.L Singh Bridge ,
Mahendra Bridge and Prithvi Chowk Bridge are famous places for this purpose.
DAVI’S FALL ( PATALE CHHANGO)
Locally known as Patale Chhango
was named Davi ‘Fall after a Swiss Lady was swept away and died in 31 July
1961.The water flowing from Phewa lake shows a wonderful fall. We find hollow
sandy part and a heavy fall of water within its natural trench. It looks really
amazing scene of rainbow with sunlight when a volume of water falls in the deep
rocky gorge and produces the water vapour especially in summer.
CAVES
There are many limestone caves as
interesting parts of the geological study. Among them, Mahendra Cave, Bats’
Cave and Crystal Cave are situated at the northern part of the city and about 8
km drive from the Lakeside. Gupteshwar Mahadev cave, where an idol of Lord
Shiva is mysteriously found is situated just opposite to the Davi’s fall.
