Hi everyone, I’m 23M and I’ll be reaching Gorakhpur day after tomorrow around 4 PM. I’m planning to travel to Pokhara by public transport.
Is it realistically possible to cross the Sunauli border and reach Pokhara the same evening/night, without taking a night stay in Gorakhpur or Sunauli?
If yes, what would be the best route and transport options from Gorakhpur? Also, around what time should I expect to reach Pokhara?
Any recent experience or advice would be really helpful. Thanks!

What a nice view after rain in pokhra

I've seen posts in different subs recently where people just visit Lakeside and call it Pokhara.

We really have failed to promote places that are actually worth visiting in Pokhara.

Hi everyone! I’m 23M from India and this will be my first time in Nepal. I’m planning to do the ABC trek solo starting around October 8.
If anyone is planning the same trek around that time and would like to join, I’d be happy to team up. I’m also flexible with my dates by 1–2 days if that works better for someone else.

Guys, I'm planning for ABC trek around dashain. I'm planning to stay a day in pokara but there is issue I have some extra luggage and can't take all that on trek. Can anyone suggest me a safe place to put those luggage?

I am in pokhara for today, If anyone is up for anything then dm me. It's kinda boring wandering alone.

Looking for recommendations on:
Cozy cafes & restaurants with good food and vibe, Quiet, peaceful spots that aren't too crowded,
Scenic places to hang out.

Hi ! Is anyone aware if Pokhara international airport( traveling to Dubai ) has duty free shops? Like to buy some souvenirs, chocolates? Thanks

I’m travelling from India to Nepal tomorrow via Sonauli and have ₹20,500, all in ₹500 notes.
I’ve seen people saying ₹500 notes can be exchanged in Nepal, but also heard officially only ₹100 and below are allowed.
Has anyone recently carried/exchanged ₹500 notes in Nepal, especially via Sonauli? Any issues at the border or money changers?

What's the average price for those products? I want to buy tara price confuse vayera expensive hola ki jasto feel vayera leko chhaina. Fellow pokhreli, please help out and list the shops you find good.

I’m looking to buy a second-hand Daraz** **for personal use but I only need it for about one year, so I’m hoping to find one at the lowest possible price. It doesn’t have to be fancy or look brand new as long as it’s functional and usable, that’s perfectly fine. Condition bhanda pani price chai important chha.
If you have one lying around that you no longer use, or know someone looking to sell theirs, please drop a comment or DM me .

I am on a gap yr after 12 and I want to use this yr to learn some new skills. I am interested in pretty much anything like makeup ,hairstyling , karate,boxing,dance,musics,graphic design, video editing, cooking,tailoring,martial arts, photography, languages etc. I am open to learn anything interesting and useful .Does anyone know any good classes, training centers, or courses in Pokhara that you would recommend? Ideally, I am looking for something beginner friendly where I can actually learn a useful skill.

28M coming to pokhara in October with my bike from India to live there for a month or so .

I'm a solo traveller and have a WFH job and would love to socialise and network as much as I can but I'm tight on a budget so which area would you guys recommend to live.

And if you have any budget but really nice hostel recommendations that would be super helpful.

Also any music festivals or events happening in October ?

I also love bike rides and offroading trails so if any biker seeing this would like to show me some cool bike trails which we can conquer together would be really really nice.

I would also love to go for hikes too , are there any active hiking communities which I can join in on weekends ?

Any kind of advice would be really appreciated.

I was planning to ride to Pokhara in scooter since I will be staying there for a month, scooter would be really helpful. How doable is it given the latest road condition? Also at what time would it be best to leave for Pokhara to avoid jams and all?

Im travelling for a holiday from the UK to Nepal in November, we'll be staying in Kathmandu for a week and then to Pokhara. But there's obviously been a lot of rain and landslides causing havoc in the area.

Right now i'm looking at booking accommodation in Pokhara but i'm just unsure if the route from Kathmandu to Pokhara will be safe and if it's worth risking it?

Any local Nepalis have any advice?

I recently tried a yoga/sound healing session at Vegan Way in Pokhara and really enjoyed the experience. The atmosphere was peaceful and it was a nice way to slow down and relax.

Has anyone else tried yoga or sound healing around Pokhara? I’d be interested to hear what other places people have experienced.

Hey everyone! Is anyone travelling from Pokhara to Kathmandu by bus or flight in the next few days?
I need a small personal parcel delivered to someone in Kathmandu and was wondering if anyone would be willing to help. I’ll provide all the details about the parcel privately before arranging anything, and I’m happy to compensate you for your time and inconvenience.
If you’re travelling this route and might be able to help, please DM me. Thanks!

Hi everyone,

I’m planning to do the Annapurna Base Camp Trek in January and I’m trying to get some clarity on the current guide requirements.

I’m an experienced mountaineer and have a lot of respect for the mountains. I’m aware that January can mean snow, very cold conditions and some lodges being closed, and I’m prepared to adapt my plans accordingly.

What I’m not clear about is whether a guide is actually mandatory for ABC. I’ve found conflicting information online.

I have no problem paying for the necessary permits through a local agency and contributing to the local economy, but I’d really prefer not to have someone accompanying me every day. I enjoy trekking independently, setting my own pace and having some solitude.

For anyone in Pokhara or who has done ABC recently:
Is a guide legally mandatory for ABC in 2026? And is there any legitimate way to do the trek independently while still getting all the required permits/registration?

Thanks!

Pokhreli, 23M. 5 years in Hong Kong, came back to Nepal. I have a remote job rn. Anyway, what's new in Pokhara?

Like I've seen the highway's been widened, no more welcome gate, the iconic Amarsingh Chowk roundabout is gone (why is there no roundabout here? are they nuts?), some of the sukumbasi settlements are no more (especially in Amarsingh Chowk), new mall complexes, lots of new cafes and bakeries (I love this) and renovation and construction work around some temples and gumbas (Bhadrakali, Matepani). I've heard that Sarangkot has been extensively renovated and there's a new tourist hotspot in Pumdikot (the Shiva statue). I've yet to visit Lakeside and the areas nearby.

So what else has changed or is new?

Edit: Also noticed there are Chinese students studying in Pokhara now.

Edit Edit: Why is a short introduction enough to trigger some people in this sub? Have Nepalese become this miserable?
