World Peace Pagoda

First of best wishes to all our ladies on the ocassion of their International Day! 🙂
After a harsh days in the high Himalaya I am already clean and relaxed. So it was a time to take a little climbing to the World Peace Pagoda overlooking Pokhara and Fewa Lake.
Big white stupa on the green ridge is easy visible from almost every place in the town. Inaugurated in 1999 was built by Japanese Buddhist.
There are two ways to get there. Taxi round trip will cost you around 1500 rs. I took the boat for rs 410 – it took me to the other side of the lake and then there was about an hour climbing the stone path through the forest. Beware of the brave monkeys and enjoy the views of all Annapurnas Range! It is important to start as early as possible because already around 11 am the highest mountains became covered by clouds – even on sunny day!
Once on the ridge you can visit the white stupa and to enjoy great panoramic views. I returned to Pokhara by road on the other side of the ridge – this takes even more then an hour…
