Pokhara



                                         Pokhara
 Pokhara (900m) has boomed over the years into a sprawling but still pleasant town of a considerable size. It was once a sleepy village surrounded by rice fields and some very dense jungle. Lakeside is the main tourist area, where hotels restaurants and shops are found. Three are not many historic sites in pokhara but it does have an old bazaar steer and the pokhara mountain museum. High above the placid pewa lake is the peace pagoda. Tibetan refugee camps are located around the town and to the southeast is the narrow ravine of Devi’s falls. Sarangkot is a spectacular vantage point to watch the sunrise or sunset on the Annapurna ranges, untainted brooding and standing sentinel over the valley
