Pokhara is Nepal’s holiday resort town. At around 6 to 8 hours from Kathmandu, Pokhara is located deep inside the Himalayas and sits on the edge of Lake Phewa Tal away from the main part of town.
This part of town is very touristy, but offers every thing that a visitor may need – barbers, masseuse, convenience stores, general supplies, outdoor clothing and off course your souvenir stores etc. The area near that lake has numerous hotels and guesthouses, and new ones are springing up all the time. The price starts from 200 rupees per night. There are also many restaurants and they tend to be very reasonably priced.
There is a carefree attitude here, as most visitors are about to start or have just finished a trek into the mountains [edit text][editors]
