On a hill overlooking the southern end of Phewa Lake, you will find the World Peace Stupa.

From here, you can see a spectacular view of the lake, of Pokhara and Annapurna Himalayas.
Sarangkot is a hill on the southern side of the lake which offers a wonderful dawn panorama,
with green valleys framed by the snow-capped Annapurnas. The Seti Gandaki River has created
spectacular gorges in and around the city. At places it is only a few meters wide and runs so far
below that it is not visible from the top. Among the beautiful temples you can visit in Pokhara,
you will find Bindhyabasini, Bhadrakali, Sitaldevi, Gita Mandir and Bhimsen. International
Mountain Museum and the Gurkha Museum are also worth a visit. Please spend at least half a
day around Mahendraphul and Pritiviti Chowk. Here you will find thousands of shops, with a
mind-boggling array of merchandise.

Many tourists plan to spend only a day or two in Pokhara at the end of their trek. When they
leave, they wish they had spent more time here. Don’t make this mistake when visiting
Pokhara. The city has so much to offer that you can easily enjoy a whole week here.
