  • Another beautiful lake near Pokhara. It doesn't have crowded buildings here, it's a peaceful and nature lover friendly lake with hills and greenery around. You can also find many restaurants and fish dishes around here. I am a vegetarian though but still have food items for me too.
  • So peaceful and romantic place to visit. The Boatsman are so friendly. They charge NPR 700 per hour for boating which is more useful.
  • One of the beautiful places to visit in Pokhara. You can enjoy boating in peaceful environment.
  • One of my favorite Pokhara places. A peaceful setting where you can unwind and enjoy the boating. It's a beautiful place to be. Enjoy an hour of boating to the fullest. There are also some restaurants at the lake's end.
  • A very cool and awesome place far from the city of Pokhara. Large lake but not as crowded and happening like Fewa. Boats are available for rowing and just chilling in the cool wind. Lovely place. It should be more advertised and we'll managed for parking and night stays.
