The Interesting Nepal
Talking about Nepal, nowadays most visitors to this country still come to “get high”, but the phrase refers more to high altitude treks than attitude, and hash browns rather than hash brownies.
One popular destination has been the lakeside resort of Pokhara with stunning views of the spectacular Annapurna Range. Although long on the Lonely Planet trail, it was not until recently that decent, first class digs of international standards became available. On the very first years of this century saw the opening of the Fulbari, a new luxury resort sprawling over 150 acres, and Tiger Mountain, joining Shangri-La Village as upmarket choices. Otherwise, many people who come to Nepal stay at the lkeside, an older player which unfortunately has now become spoiled by over-commercialisation catering to the muesli set.
The climate in Pokhara, despite the fact that it is closer to the Himalayan peaks, is considerably warmer, sunnier and the air fresher and cleaner than Kathmandu. Like Thamel, Pokhara has a glut of budget backpacker accommodation, and many lodges have been built by ex-Gurkha servicemen and Thakalis. Restaurants are everywhere along the lakeside. The cuisine, however, is undistinguished. One exception is Mike’s Restaurant inside the Fewa Hotel compound directly on the lakeside. With its terrace a few feet from the shore, it feels more like Switzerland than Nepal.
Pokhara is the main base for treks in the Annapurna region. The most popular treks are the so-called “Tea House” treks which traverse well-travelled areas, this place can become overcrowded in high-season. For your information, the “tea houses” actually are only small, basic, lodges offering accommodation and food for travellers. Providing both food and shelter, they thus require minimal equipment and, being economical, they are popular with backpackers and budget tourists.
Jomsom is the destination of a classic tea house trek on the busy trade route, once used by salt traders, leading to the Kingdom of Lo Manthang on the Tibet border. This area boasts some of the best tea houses owned by the enterprising ethnic Thakalis of the Kaligandaki Valley. The trek begins in Pokhara and passes terraced rice fields and rhododendron forest before descending to Tatopani. The trail traverses the Kaligandaki Valley, waterfalls, and Thakali villages, with spectacular views along the way of the Annapurna massif and Dhaulagiri.

A backpack fitted with pocket(s) that are suspended on the wearer"s front side (chest) and loaded in such a way that the load in the front and the load in the back are about equal is called a bodypack. The majority of the load on a bodypack is carried by the hips.
