Aia ma ke komohana o Kathmandu ma kahi mamao o 203 km, ʻo ke awāwa ʻo Pokhara ka lua o ke awāwa nui loa ma ka ʻāina puʻu o Nepal. ʻO ia kekahi o nā wahi huakaʻi i kipa nui ʻia ma Nepal. ʻO kēia kaulana o Pokhara ma muli o nā ʻano hana like ʻole e hiki ai iā ʻoe ke hauʻoli ma aneʻi me ka ʻike kupaianaha o nā hiʻohiʻona mauna, nā loko ʻālohilohi, a me nā ululāʻau ʻōmaʻomaʻo mānoanoa. Hoʻokomo pū kēia mau hana i nā ʻano haʻuki hoʻohiwahiwa like ʻole , nā hele wāwae, nā mākaʻikaʻi, a pēlā aku. ʻO kēia mau hana kekahi manawa kūpono e ʻike ai i ke ʻano o ka nohona kū hoʻokahi o ka poʻe e noho ana ma nā wahi puʻu o Nepal.
ʻAʻohe mea e like me ka nani maoli o Pokhara. He puka ia i nā ala hele wāwae he nui ʻole i ka ʻāina ʻo Annapurna. ʻO kekahi o nā huakaʻi kaulana loa ma ka honua holoʻokoʻa, ʻo ka huakaʻi ʻo Annapurna Base Camp , hoʻomaka pū mai ʻaneʻi! No laila, ua puni ʻo Pokhara e ka hiʻohiʻona kupaianaha o ka pae ʻo Annapurna, a ukali ʻia e nā piko ʻē aʻe i uhi ʻia i ka hau. ʻO ka hōʻuluʻulu ʻana o nā piko mauna e komo pū ana me Dhaulagiri (8167m), Annapurna II (7937m), Machhapuchhre (6993m), Manaslu, a pēlā aku. Hiki i nā mea huakaʻi ke hele i kahi huakaʻi pōkole i nā wahi kaulana e like me Sarangkot, Shanti Stupa, a pēlā aku e leʻaleʻa i ka nānā kokoke ʻana i nā pae Himalayan kupaianaha a me kahi hiʻohiʻona manu nani o ke awāwa ʻo Pokhara. ʻIke nui ʻia ka hiʻohiʻona o nā mauna i ka wā puna a me ke kau hāʻule.
Hāʻawi ʻia ʻo Pokhara i nā kino wai he nui, me nā loko e like me Phewa Lake a me Begnas Lake. Ke kahe nei ka muliwai Seti-Gandaki ma ke awawa o Pokhara, e hana ana i na awawa he mau haneri mika ka hohonu. ʻO ka mea hoihoi loa o Pokhara, ʻo ia kona porous ma lalo o ka lepo, kahi i hiki ai ke hoʻokumu ʻia nā ana lalo.
ʻO Gupteshwor Cave a me Mahendra Cave ʻelua o nā ana i kipa nui ʻia ma Nepal, e noho ana ma Pokhara. Aia ma waho o ka puka komo o Gupteshwor ka wailele kamahaʻo i kapa ʻia ʻo Patale Chhango (aka ʻo Davis Falls).
ʻO ke piʻi a me ka hāʻule ʻana o ke kiʻekiʻe i kahi mamao pōkole ka mea kūikawā o Pokhara. Ma muli o kēia, hiki i nā mea huakaʻi ke hauʻoli i kekahi mau haʻuki koʻikoʻi ma ke kumukūʻai kūpono. Hiki i kekahi ke hauʻoli i ka bungee jumping, ka rafting wai keʻokeʻo ma ka muliwai ʻo Seti, zip-lining (ka zip line wikiwiki loa ma Nepal), paragliding, a pēlā aku. No ka iho ʻana mai ka wikiwiki o nā haʻuki koʻikoʻi, hiki iā ʻoe ke hauʻoli i kahi lā hoʻomaha e lana ana ma ka loko ʻo Fewa ma kahi waʻa a hauʻoli i ka nānā ʻana i nā manu.
He koʻikoʻi koʻikoʻi ko Pokhara. Loaʻa i nā luakini a me nā stupas he nui i kipa ʻia e nā Hindu a me Buddhist Pilgrims i kēlā me kēia makahiki. ʻO ka luakini ʻo Bindabasini, aia ma waenakonu o ka loko Phewa, ʻo ia kekahi o nā wahi huakaʻi kaulana loa o Pokhara. Aia nō ke ana ʻo Gupteshwor kahi e noho ai ke kiʻi kapu o ka Haku Shiva. ʻO nā stupas e like me ka World Peace stupa (Shanti stupa) a me Matepani Gumba he mea nui loa i ka poʻe haipule Buddhist.
ʻO ke ʻano o ke awāwa ʻo Pokhara kahi hui o ka nohona o kēia wā a me ka nohona kuʻuna. Ma ka ʻaoʻao hoʻokahi, hōʻike maikaʻi ʻia ka ʻaoʻao o ke awāwa ʻo Pokhara i ke ʻano o ka noho ʻana o nā wahi puʻu o Nepal. ʻO nā hale lepo kaʻawale me ka hale pili, nā māla paddy, a me nā ʻano mahiʻai kuʻuna a me nā mahiʻai he mau hiʻohiʻona maʻamau o nā ʻāina puʻu o Nepal, hiki ke loaʻa ma Pokhara.
Ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻē aʻe, he mea kupanaha ka pō o Pokhara. Hoʻopiha ʻia ka ʻaoʻao o ka loko i nā kaola a me nā hale ʻaina he nui e wehe ʻia a hiki i ke ahiahi. ʻO ia ka lewa maikaʻi loa e hoʻomaha ai mai kahi huakaʻi hele luhi me ka pia ma ka lima hoʻokahi a me ka nānā ʻana i ka mālamalama e ʻike mai ana mai Phewa Lake.
