The views from the World Peace Pagoda are some of the best you have ever seen in your life. The Shanti Stupa is a symbol of peace for Nepal, and for Hinduism. The huge white pagoda can be seen from Pokhara Lakeside but obviously it is up close that it is the most impressive. It is silence all round so you can enjoy the quiet and admire the views. There is a whole little village up here so head up for sunrise and enjoy a breakfast with a view.
It is free to visit the World Peace Pagoda, but there is a donation box so pop a few rupees in to keep your karma in check.
