At pokhara a Barahi Hotel

Right next to Fewa Lake, the Barahi Hotel enjoys a peaceful position within Pokhara, a short walk from the Barahi Temple. Guests staying at the Barahi Hotel are in a prime position for enjoying Fewa Lake – the hotel so named after the temple where locals worship the deity Ajima. One of the hotel’s best features is its colorful garden and laidback pool area, where guests can enjoy afternoon tea and evening drinks or cool off after a hot day exploring Pokhara’s scenic spots. Rooms are clean and comfortable – some with balconies and views of the Annapurna mountain range, while rooftop terraces offer an excellent place to view –and photograph – Macchapucchre ‘Fishtail’ Mountain. A nightly folk music show accompanying dinner in the garden offers a unique glimpse into Nepali culture.

at pokhara Trek O' Tel Hotel

Positioned in Pokhara’s Lake-side area, Trek O’Tel offers modern accommodation a few minutes’ walk from Fewa Lake and the main tourist strip. In a quiet spot at the south end of the main Lake-side street, this relatively new hotel offers guests proximity to shops and bars, at a distance where peace and solitude can still be experienced. A two-minute walk will have guests at the edge of Fewa Lake, while the buzz of the main shopping area is just a little bit further, with plenty of food options around, including a couple of bakeries. Meals at the hotel are a splendid affair – the garden cafe offering expansive views of the Annapurna mountain range and Fewa Lake. The hotel is unique in the sense that where most hotel rooms are rectangular in shape, the rooms here are octagonal

Origin of Pokhara

The development of Pokhara valley and the origin of Annapurna range including the majestic peak Macchapuchhre is ascribed to Geological faulting in the 'Tertiary Period! (between 65‑25 million years ago from now). The convergence of Indian peninsula with Tibetan plate resulted into upsurge of Himalayas from the Tethys sea. After the upsurge of Annapurna range, due to the action of climatic components, glaciers started eroding mountains. The eroded materials ‑ limestone, gneiss and quartzite ‑were transported downwards depositing larger and coarser debris first and smaller as well as smoother debris later. Therefore the northern region of Pokhara has thicker layer of coarser and larger boulders but this thickness decreases southward and smoothness and size reduction occurs gradually. In this way, the tectonic valley was developed due to the hauling of debris as moraine and subsequent deposition as lake deposit.

Aeroplanes of different airlines fly several times a day from Kathmandu to Pokhara and many times a week from other major cities of the country.
