KATHMANDU: Pokhara, known as Nepal’s tourist capital, has long been celebrated for its natural beauty, with Phewa Lake being one of the region’s most iconic attractions.
Now, visitors can experience this breathtaking landscape from a new perspective, thanks to the recently opened cable car service connecting Lakeside to Sarangkot.
The cable car ride, which offers an aerial view of the city, is already becoming a popular choice for tourists and locals alike. From high above, passengers are treated to panoramic views of Phewa Lake, its serene waters, and the lush hills surrounding it.
The sight of the lake, nestled between green hills and flanked by the towering peaks of the Annapurna range, is nothing short of spectacular.
For many, this new way to explore Pokhara has become a must-do experience. The cable car, which travels from the busy Lakeside area to the hilltop of Sarangkot, allows tourists to enjoy the scenery in a way that wasn’t possible before.
As the cable car glides smoothly above the landscape, passengers can capture stunning photos of the lake and the surrounding city, offering a fresh perspective of this beloved location.
Local photographer Ram Thapa recently captured the view of Phewa Lake from the cable car, with his photo being published by the national news agency Rastriya Samachar Samiti (RSS).
His image, which shows the shimmering lake below and the distant hills surrounding the city, has garnered widespread attention for its beauty and the unique viewpoint it represents.
The cable car, which began operations in recent months, has already become a key highlight of Pokhara’s tourism offerings. It not only offers breathtaking views of Phewa Lake but also provides easy access to Sarangkot, known for its panoramic views of the Himalayas, especially at sunrise and sunset.
For tourists looking to make the most of their visit to Pokhara, the cable car ride has become an exciting way to take in the full scope of the region’s natural beauty.
