Pokhara: A Paradise on Earth to Capture Snowy Mountains and Lakes in Your Camera

Highlights of the Trip: Phewa Lake + Annapurna Mountains + Paragliding Who says you have to go to Switzerland to see snowy mountains? The Annapurna Range in Pokhara is the ultimate healing destination! ✅ Must-Visit Spots 1️⃣ Boating on Phewa Lake: In the early morning, the misty lake reflects the Fish Tail Peak so clearly it takes your breath away! Rent a colorful boat and wear a white dress for fairy-like photos. 2️⃣ World Peace Pagoda: Located halfway up the mountain, it offers a panoramic view of the lake. At sunset, golden light bathes the snowy peaks, creating Instagram-worthy shots with every click. 3️⃣ Paragliding Experience: Only $200 per session! Take off from Sarangkot Hill and soar above emerald lakes and seven 8,000-meter peaks. Feel the adrenaline rush while being awestruck by the beauty. 👗 Outfit Suggestions Light-colored long dresses + woven bags + Roman sandals. With snowy mountains, lakes, and blue skies, even unedited photos look stunning! Don’t forget sunglasses to prevent snow blindness. 🍜 Food Recommendations Must-try dishes at lakeside restaurants include saffron fried rice and curry lamb with naan bread—absolutely delicious! Grab a cup of ginger tea at a tea shop to keep warm. Only about $10 per person for a hearty meal. 💡 Practical Tips ✔️ Avoid the rainy season (June-September) as paragliding may be canceled; winter (November-February) is the best for photos but mornings and evenings can be below freezing. ✔️ Pokhara is small, and tuk-tuk fares increase for cross-district rides. It’s recommended to stay near Phewa Lake.
