You can enjoy the beautiful sightseeing in Pokhara. Pokhara the starting point for a many treks through the mountains of the Annapurna Range, including the perennially popular Jomsom Trek and the equally dramatic (but less busy) trek to the Annapurna Sanctuary. The perfect pyramid of Mt Machhapuchre looms high above Pokhara, reflected in the placid waters of Phewa Lake.

For many travelers, Pokhara represents a last chance to stock up on creature comforts before hitting the mountain trails.. Even if you aren’t a dedicated trekker, there’s plenty here to keep you busy. Pokhara has numerous museums and there are some fascinating caves, waterfalls and Tibetan villages in the surrounding hills.
