    After breakfast, you will leave for sightseeing. 

    You will be taken to Pashupatinath Temple first. Pashupatinath Temple is one of the oldest Hindu temples dedicated to Lord Shiva and is listed as one of the World Heritage Sites. The main temple is built in the Nepalese Pagoda style architecture. It has four main doors all covered with silver sheets. There is a main idol in the center of the four gates and only four priests are allowed to touch the idol. Cremation at Pashupatinath is of spiritual experience where individual physical essence is released from its physical form, allowing it to be reborn.

    You will then continue to Boudhanath Stupa. Standing more than 120 feet tall Boudhanath is also amongst the tallest Stupa in Asia. Boudhanath is the heart of Tibetian Buddhism in Nepal. On each side of the rectangular top of this stupa, there is a pair of eyes. These eyes reflect the awareness of Lord Buddha upon all of the people.

    A UNESCO world heritage site, Patan City, known as Lalitpur and the ‘The Beautiful City’, was once home to kings who resided in luxurious palaces in Durbar Square. The Ashoka Stupa, with enigmatic painted eyes, is the most inspiring of the four stupas in Patan and the Mahabuddha, the Temple of the Thousand Buddhas, teems with terracotta Buddhist representations.

    The Swayambhunath Stupa is one of the crowning glories of Kathmandu Valley architecture. The entire structure of the stupa is deeply symbolic: the white dome represents the earth, while the 13-tiered, tower-like structure at the top symbolises the 13 stages to nirvana.

Sightseeing

Bindhbasini Temple 3.jpg

Bindhyabasini Temple

The Bindhyabasini Temple or Bindhya Basini Temple looks like a small white hut, however there are other temples scattered inside the boundary. Situated on a small hillock with a beautiful view of the massive Annapurna ranges. The Bindhya Basini temple is dedicated to the goddess Bhagwati, known as the guardian deity of Pokhara. Known as the blood-thirsty goddess there have been sacrifices of animals made to please the goddess, which accounts for some gruesome sights for an average non-violent person. The temple is 3000ft above sea level and as mentioned earlier sits on a hillock therefore devotees have a flight of stairs to climb from the road till the temple. The slope right beside the temple has a couple of café’s and shops where you can find souvenirs of the temple and offerings to be made inside the temple. This beautifully located temple holds quite an importance for the Hindu’s in the area, hence some code of conduct is to be followed while entering the temple. Its best recommended if a spiritual time is what you are looking for.

Davis Fall 2.jpg

Davi's Fall

Devi’s fall also known as Patale Chhango, this waterfall marks the point where the Pardi Khola stream vanishes underground. When the stream is at full bore after monsoon rains, the sound of the water plunging over the falls is deafening. The falls are about 2km southwest of the airport on the road to Butwal, just before the Tashi Ling Tibetan camp.

Gupteshwor Cave 2.jpg

Gupteshwor Mahadev Cave

The Gupteshwor Mahadev cave is Nepal's most famous cave. It is located close to Davi’s fall in Pokhara.  It's rumored to be the longest cave in Nepal (2950 meters).The Cave is considered 599 years old. While the young local people went deeper, they found out that an idol-like object resembling Lord Shiva had formed naturally on the spot. Later on, it was taken to be Lord Shiva and the local people formally consecrated and installed it at the mouth of the cave in 1992. The cave is musty and damp but a string of electric light bulbs emits enough light to see the stairs clearly. Most of the time one needs to bend down until one has passed through the 50 meters long tunnel. Once one has passed through the tunnel, there is a huge open cavern with enormous rocks, no trace of soil at all, only little pebbles scattered everywhere. On the right hand side there is a deep gorge. After a few yards of scrambling through the darkness, there is a crystal clear pond and from here one can see the awe-inspiring falling right from the top.
