The World Peace Pagoda in Pokhara is one of an estimated 80+ Peace Pagodas that are located around the world today. The Pokhara Peace Pagoda was built after World War II by the Buddhist monks from the Japanese Nipponzan Myohoji organization to promote world peace. The Pagoda is located on a hilltop, and our small group tour had utilized a small tour bus that was capable of holding 16 tourists plus the guide and driver. Our tour driver drove past the main parking area that was intended for the big, full-sized buses and drove all the way to a small taxi drop-off area - saving maybe about 20 minutes of uphill hiking. If I remember correctly, the hiking time from the taxi drop-off area to the Pagoda still required 20 to 30 minutes of uphill walking. We had arrived at the Pagoda hill before daybreak - before the big tour groups had arrived. Once at the top of the hill, there is a small park area where the Pagoda is located. The views from this hill-top park are outstanding - views of the Pagoda, the mountains in the background, Pokhara city skyline below the hill and the sunrise over the city skyline - fantastic views!

One can not imagine having gone to Pokhara and not gone to this place, Bindhya Basini Temple. This is both from religious point of view as well as the beauty of snow laden mountains. The temple provides a unique spot for photography. Temple is utterly clean and one can enjoy the darshan in the serene atmosphere. From a specially provided spot for photography one can take photos of snow mountains of Annapurna range to heart' content. Early morning these mountain provide a special effect of sun's rays.
