POKHARA VALLEY:
The Pokhara Valley is one of the most picturesque spots of Nepal.
The beauty of the valley is enhanced by the lakes Phewa, Begnas,
and Rupa, which have their source in the glacial region the Annapurna Range of the Himalayas.
Pokhara Valley is situated at an altitude of 827 meters above
sea-level.
For mountain views, Pokhara offers a magnificent view
of Dhaulagiri, Manaslu, Machhapuchhare, and others. Pokhara is one of the few places in
the world to provide such dramatic views in a subtropical setting.
Machhapuchhare, for example, is only 28 kilometers from Phewa
Lake, and not a single mountain range intervenes between the two.
Pokhara's numerous lakes, known as 'taal' in Nepali, offer fishing,
boating, and swimming. Comfortable accommodations are available
in Pokhara.
