Pokhara

 Pokhara has become a major tourist destination in Asia mainly for adventure tourism and the base for the famous Annapurna trek. Thus, a major contribution to the local economy comes from the tourism and hospitality industry. There are two 5-star hotels and approximately 305 other hotels that includes five 3-star, fifteen 2-star and non-star hotels in the city.

Pokhara is quite a modern city, however, many medieval era temples (Barahi temple, Bindhyabasini, Bhadrakali, Sitaldevi, Gita mandir temple, Bhimsen temple) and old newari houses are still a part of the city (Bagar, Bindhyabasini, Bhairab Tole, etc.). The modern commercial city centres are at Chipledhunga (slippery stone, which is still there) and Mahendrapul (recently renamed as Bhimsen Chowk).

The city promotes two major hilltops as its viewpoints to view the city and surrounding panaroma, World Peace stupa built in 1996 across the southern shore of Phewa lake which is located northwest of the city. In February 2004, International Mountain Museum was opened for public in Ratopahiro to boost city's tourism attractions. Other museums in the city are Pokhara Regional Museum, an ethnographic museum, Annapurna Natural History Museum which houses preserved specimens of flora and fauna, and contains particularly extensive collection of the butterflies, found in the Annapurna region and Gurkha Museum which shows history of the Gurkha Soldiers.

Since 1990s Pokhara has experienced rapid urbanization and as a result service and industries sectors have increasingly contributed to the local economy overtaking the traditional agriculture. The major contributors to the economy of Pokhara are manufacturing and service sector including tourism; agriculture and the foreign and domestic remittances. Tourism, service sector & manufacturing contributes approximately 58% to the economy, remittances about 20% and the agriculture nearly 16%.

Mt Everest, the highest peak in the world, has been enlisted as one of the top ten stunning travel destinations around the world by Forbes, an American publishing and media company.

Part of the Mahalangur Himal—a link in the Himalayan range—Everest, soaring to 26,035 feet, is the highest mountain on earth.

“Mt Everest is perhaps nature’s most magnificent creation—certainly it is the raison d’etre [reason for existence] in the climbing world,” Beth Greenfield of the Forbes magazine has quoted a travel planner.

“The Tibetan word for Everest is Chomolungma, which means ‘Mother of the Universe,’ and the Nepali name Sagarmatha means ‘Goddess of the Sky.’ Both are perfectly fitting, as there is no other mountain as grand as Everest,” Greenfield has quoted Peter Friedman, a trip expert.

According to government statistics, over 3,000 climbers have scaled Everest since it was first climbed by Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Sherpa in 1953. Annually, over 32,000 tourists visit the Everest region, for trekking and expedition. Particularly, the Khumbu or Everest region has two tourist seasons—March-April-May in spring and September-October-November in autumn. The region receives highest mountaineers and trekkers in spring.

The royalty to climb Everest in spring ranges from US$ 15,000 to US$ 70,000 per expedition depending on the number of members (maximum seven) and the route. For an expedition that may have a maximum of 15 members, a fee of US$ 10,000 per person is charged.

According to the Forbes report, other stunning destinations on the planet include-Tuscany, Italy;Petra, Jordan; Torres del Paine National Park, Chile; Rio de Janeiro, Brazil; Midway Island and Fire Island, US; Bordeaux, France; Plain of Temples, Myanmar and Okavango Delta, Botswana
