This is a place unlike Kathmandu, the capital city of
Nepal.
Most parts of Pokhara are different parts of Nature put
together, and the region is definitely less densely populated than Kathmandu.
Owing to its lush greenery, magnificent snow cap mountains, and picturesque
lakes, Pokhara is often considered as the tourism capital of Nepal. In
addition, Pokhara is home to many Gurkha soldiers and the starting point for
most mountain treks in Nepal, such as the trek we took to Ghandruk.
As we sat on the bus back to Pokhara, we reflected on our
journey as we were on top of the mountains. Did the work at the Annapurna
conservation region inspire us? Did the trek up to the Ghandruk village bring
the group closer? Was the scenery in Ghandruk the best that Nepal offered us?
We may not have had all our questions answered, but were
certainly contented that the social innovation wing included Pokhara as part of
the itinerary in Nepal.
