Description
Explore Pokhara’s World Peace Pagoda and Pumdikot Shiva Statue on a guided tour. Enjoy panoramic sunset view, learn about the landmarks, and soak in the serene atmosphere.
Begin with a pickup from your hotel in Pokhara and head to the World Peace Pagoda, a gleaming white stupa built by Japanese Buddhist monks to inspire peace across the world. Perched high above Phewa Lake, the stupa offers one of the most stunning panoramic views of Pokhara — the tranquil lake below and the majestic Annapurna and Machhapuchhre (Fishtail) peaks in the distance.
Next, continue to Pumdikot, home to a magnificent 108-foot-tall Shiva statue overlooking the valley. The beautifully designed three-tier complex includes meditation areas, shrines, and observation platforms — ideal for reflection and photography. Enjoy the breathtaking sunset over the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri range. Learn from your guide about the cultural and religious significance of these sacred landmarks as you explore.
After soaking in the views and peaceful atmosphere, your driver will take you back to your hotel, completing an afternoon/evening filled with serenity and scenic beauty.
