City Guide Pokhara: Eat, Sleep and Party, Pokhara, Nepal (B)

Pokhara is the second largest city of Nepal. The city has a beautiful lake and is surrounded by the Himalayas. It is the most obvious town in Nepal to visit, if you would like to see the Himalayas without trekking. However, if you would like to go trekking, Pokhara also serves as a good starting point for the popular treks like the Anapurna circuit and the Poon hill trek. The city is mainly visited by hippies, backpackers, tourists who go trekking and locals who are going for a short domestic holiday.

Getting there from Kathmandu is either a five to six hour bus drive or a short thirty to fourthly minute flight.

Pokhara lists endless adventures. You can go rafting on the rivers, mountain biking through the amazing nature, paragliding over the beautiful lake, renting a boat and paddling through the tranquil waters, do some ultra light flying or bungee jumping, hiking to the World Piece Pagoda or you can bring a visit to the Devi’s waterfall or one of the magnificent caves.
