Tour Plan
The World Peace Pagoda in Pokhara
Your guide will meet you at your hotel lobby and transport you to the World Peace Pagoda in the comfort of a private vehicle. Upon reaching the pagoda after about a 30-minute drive, it's a 10-minute walk through staircases to reach the massive Buddhist stupa.
Constructed by Buddhist monks from the Japanese Nipponzan Myohoji order, the monument reflects four prominent stages of the Buddha's life in four directions: where he was born in Lumbini, where he became enlightened in Bothgaya, where he taught most of his life time in Sarnath, and where he reached nirvana at Kushi Nagar.
Reaching this place atop a hill overlooking the southern shore of Phewa Lake, learn about its design to inspire harmony. Besides being an impressive sight in itself, the shrine provides a great vantage point from which to see spectacular views of the Annapurna range and Pokhara. You will be then transferred back to your hotel by private vehicle.

Our family had a fantastic time exploring the serene beauty of the pagoda, surrounded by breathtaking views of majestic peaks. The private experience allowed us to soak in the tranquility and really appreciate the stunning landscapes without feeling rushed. One suggestion would be to include a bit more time at the viewpoint for those perfect family photos, but overall, it was an unforgettable afternoon.

Hiking to the pagoda was a peaceful experience, especially when I reached the viewpoint where the stunning Annapurna range revealed itself in all its glory. I took a moment to sit on a bench, soaking in the serene atmosphere while watching clouds dance over the peaks. My only suggestion would be to include a brief history of the site during the tour, as I found myself curious about its significance.

From the moment we started our trek, we felt a serene energy enveloping us as we made our way towards the stunning structure that stood tall against the backdrop of the majestic mountains. The hike was invigorating, and we couldn’t help but pause often to take in the breathtaking views of the Annapurna range, which seemed to shift colors with the changing light. Once we reached the pagoda, the atmosphere was nothing short of magical; we spent time soaking in the peacefulness and admiring the intricate details of the architecture. Each angle offered a new perspective on the surrounding landscape, and we even shared a few moments of quiet reflection, which felt incredibly grounding. While our guide was knowledgeable and friendly, a little more time dedicated to the history and significance of the site would have been a nice touch. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience that left us feeling inspired and connected to both nature and each other. If you’re looking for a brief escape infused with tranquility, we highly recommend this adventure with friends!
