Nagarkot
Nagarkot is a very comfortable and quite place situated 32 km east of Kathmandu. It is situated at an altitude of 2175m above sea level. It is a popular hill destination of Nepal and is the famous for sunrise, sunset and mountain views. Five of the world's 10 tallest Mountains, Everest (8848m), Lhotse (8516m), Cho Oyu (8201m), Makalu (8463m) and Manaslu (8163m) along with many other summits are visible from here. The place is surrounded by the terraced hillside and beautiful scenery.

Namobuddha
Namobuddha is situated on a hill above Panauti near Bhaktapur. You can reach it after an easy drive or good walk. There is an amazing story related to the Buddha which is commemorated by an ancient stone slab and a Stupa with the all-seeing eyes of Lord Buddha. According to the legend, one of the earlier Buddha offered his own flesh to a tiger unable to feed her hungry cubs. It can also be reached after a three hour trekking from Dhulikhel through a number of small villages.

Kirtipur
Kirtipur is a small town located eight kilometers south-west of Kathmandu on the top of a ridge. Tribhuvan University, Nepal’s oldest University, sits at the foot of the hill. This historic town has many things to offer, including ancient shrines, temples, traditional houses, and villagers dressed in traditional clothes weaving on hand looms.

Dakshinkali
The Dakshinkali temple is 20 km South of Kathmandu. The temple is dedicated to the Hindu Goddess of power and energy, Kali, and is one of the most popular places of worship in Kathmandu. Animal sacrifices are made on Tuesday and Saturday in Dakshinkali.

Bhudanilkantha
Eight kilometers north of Kathmandu is a remarkable, colossal statue of lord Vishnu reclining on a bed of snakes. The fifth-century statue lies in the middle of the small Budhanikantha pond and is a place of pilgrimage for all Hindus. It is also the scene of great activity during festivals such as Haribodhini Ekadasi and Kartik Poornima. An interesting feature of this shrine is that the reigning King of Nepal should not visit the spot according to an old tradition.

Shivapuri
Shivapuri provides most of the water that comes to the Kathmandu Valley and the hills around it. The wildlife sighting here is also excellent as the Shivapuri National Park has access to wider lands and areas behind the Kathmandu Valley. You may also wish to visit the Buddhist monastery set high on the hill.

Daman
For a view of the breathtaking grandeur of the world's highest peaks from the far west of Dhaulagiri to the east of Mt. Everest, there is no better place than Daman. It lies eighty kilometers south-west of Kathmandu on the highway known as Tribhuvan Rajpath and has a view tower fitted with a long range telescope.

Gorkha
This historical palace is situated on the top of the fortified hill above the township, about one hour's walk uphill from the bus station. On the west side of palace is the temple of Goddess Gorakhkali. There is also a famous cave sheltering the statue of Gorakhnath Baba (sage). It is believed that the name of Gorkha was derived from the name of this sage, whose blessings inspired King Prithvi Narayan Shah for the unification of Nepal. From the top of the hill above Gorkha palace and from a saddle east of the bazaar, the view of Manaslu and Himalchuli is spectacular.

Manakamana
On a beautiful ridge south-east of the township of Gorkha lies the holy temple of Manakamana, a temple dedicated to Manakamana mai, the goddess of aspirations. It is a famous pilgrimage site for Hindus. Manakamana is a four hour walk uphill from Aabu Khaireni on Kathmandu-Pokhara Highway. It can also be reched by a cable car ride.

Tansen
If visitors are wondering which place in the country would give them a taste of everything, we suggest that they give Tansen a try. Tansen is a small town of approximately twenty thousand people. It is on the way from Pokhara to Lumbini, and it is not very far from the Chitwan National Park. Located 4,300 meters above sea level, on the south flank of Srinagar Hill, the greatest attractions of this town are its ancient culture, friendly people, excellent mountain views, and, above all, its serene atmosphere. The weather remains moderate throughout the year, and it is a pleasant place to visit in any season.

Pokhara
Pokhara is 200 km to the west of Kathmandu and easily accessible by road and air from Kathmandu. It is one of the most popular tourist destinations of Nepal. From Pokhara, you can encounter the snow peaks of the Himalayas up close without having to go on a trek. Pokhara gives the spectacular view of the Annapurna range, and Machhapuchhre and Dhaulagiri mountains. Three major lakes of Nepal, Phewa Lake, Begnes lake and Rupa lake are in Pokhara. The other main attractions of Pokhara are Barahi temple, Bindabasini temple, Mahendra cave, Davie's fall, Seti Gorge

Elephant polo in Nepal

It was the trumpeting that first alerted me. A violent sound from the far side of the river. Within seconds, the racket was accompanied by human voices, then wild crashing and flashes of wrinkled grey skin and smooth tusk among the trees. Four Nepalese mahouts — elephant handlers — burst out of the forest and sprinted along the riverbank. As they ran, they threw balls of fire into the air behind them in a bid to scare off the intruder.
Stampeding wild elephants are trouble at the best of times. This attack, on a tame-elephant camp by a roaming, full-tusked male, threatened disaster. The entire World Elephant Polo Championship was at risk.
I was in southern Nepal, at Chitwan National Park near the Indian border. It is one of the best-stocked game parks in Asia: wild rhinos are prolific, monkeys and crocs common, tigers prowl at night. Yet I was here not for the wildlife, but for the ultimate in tamed life.
Although an early version of elephant polo was played by the ladies of the Indian Raj at the turn of the 1900s, the game in its modern incarnation started — as these things often do — in a bar. It was in St Moritz in 1982, and Jim Edwards — a Jersey banker who’d run away to Nepal in the 1960s to become a hunting, shooting Jungle Jim — met James Manclark, erstwhile bobsleigh champ and polo king. “By then I was into ecotourism,” Edwards recalls, “still shooting, but with a camera, not a gun.”
Manclark wanted to join forces with Edwards to throw a Nepalese party with a difference. “He said to me, ‘I like polo and you’ve got elephants. Let’s combine.’ Quite honestly, I thought he was crazy.”
Crazy but determined. Back in Nepal, Edwards received a telegram: “Have long sticks. Get elephants ready.” Manclark arrived and the sport of jungle kings was born.
Twenty-two years on, elephant polo has become a mainstay of the Nepalese social scene. Each December, as the early-morning mist rises over the forest and the polo-field, a mix of wealthy Nepalese people and expatriate toffs — ambassadors, dukes and British Gurkha officers — straddle their mighty steeds and skedaddle after a small white ball.
Since 1982, there have been changes. The first game of elephant polo was played on a full-sized pitch, and with footballs. “But elephants are slower than horses,” says Edwards. “One end to the other took an age.” As for the footballs, “the elephants kept stamping on them: they liked to hear them pop”.
Today the rules have been formalised: four elephants per team chase a standard polo ball around a foreshortened pitch. Two riders sit atop each animal. The first, a Nepalese mahout, directs the elephant using barefoot prodding behind its ears. The second, the player, wields the stick. No loitering in front of goal is allowed, and the use of trunks is strictly prohibited.
“The elephants are trained for this event,” explains Edwards, “and elephants never forget.”
The sight of elephants chasing around a field — some lumbering, others genuinely sprinting — is as magnificent as it is bizarre. There are star players and stellar elephants — the small, fast, female ones tend to be the big-eared Beckhams.
Stretcher-bearers are always on hand to clear the midfield of piles of dung and ferry in huge piles of sugar cane for the elephants’ half-time snack.

Nightlife and Entertainment in Nepal

Normally in Nepalese society, most of the locals go to bed early and get up with the rising sun – the life is still wide awake and young to many who need to keep themselves fully entertained and you will find plenty of places to fulfill your desire. Most of the restaurants in the main tourist areas like Thamel close after 10 pm but a number of bars stay open until after midnight.
