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. After completing the sightseeing, drive back to the hotel.
Drive to Pokhara. Pokhara is 210 kms from Kathmandu and is a 7 hours' drive approx. You have the option of visiting Mana Kamna temple on the way where you are taken by a cable car ride of 10 mins. From Pokhara town (2,352 feet) in good weather there are splendid views right from the hotel.
This morning you will go for an excursion trip to Sarangkot. Sarangkot is the most popular tourist destination from where the tourists can enjoy the great view of the Pokhara Valley and the magnificent view of the Himalayas. Sarangkot is only 13 kms from Lake Side, Pokhara. It is the highest viewpoint for a sunrise at an altitude of 1592mtsh. It is cooler than Pokhara. Can be reached easily within 45 to 60 minutes by vehicle from Pokhara. Many tourists come to Sarangkot for sunrise. From Sarangkot, on the northern direction we can see Dhaulagiri in the far west. Annapurna range is visible when the weather is clear on the same side. On the southern direction the village overlooks the city of Pokhara and its lake on the north-western outskirts of the city.This afternoon you will visit Bindebasini Temple. This is one of the oldest temples in Pokhara, was a part of Kaski Kingdom; the main deity of the temple, Goddess Durga, was brought from India. Apart from the peace and tranquility that can be felt in this region, the premises of the temple offers a good view of the Himalaya on a clear day. The temple is in the area of the bazaar, hence, a journey of the old bazaar can be combined with a visit to the temple. Sightseeing to Devi's Fall, also known as Patale Chango, is an awesome waterfall lying 2 km southwest of Pokhara. During summer and rainy season, the waterfall takes its real form, with gushing water splashing and making its way through the rocks. Just opposite of Devi's Fall, on the other side of the road, there is Gupteshwor Cave. This cave is popular for the different natural forms made from limestone deposits. Photography is strictly prohibited inside the cave.We will then visit the Pumdikot Shiva Statue which is a viewpoint in Pokhara and has the third largest Shiva Statue of Asia. Overnight at hotel.
