Step Towards the Cable Car Construction at Paanchpokhari

There has been made a plan to construct a cable car in a place of the Sindupalanchowk district named Paanchpokhari, a place where lots of pilgrimage sites and tourist destinations are found.

About Paanchpokhari:

Paanchpokhari at the base of Jugal Himal offers pristine mountain views, rich culture, and genuine adventure. This area, northeast of Kathmandu offers a combination of rich cultural heritage, unsurpassed beauty, and biological diversity. These include the holy Five Lakes, the incredible Himalayan scenery and the lifestyle of nomadic people unchanged by time
On the occasion of Janai Purnima every year, a grand fair held in Paanchpokhari. Also, three hotels have come in construction since July 17th. Lots of foreigners visit this place to see the lakes. But the main problem over this place is the transportation facility. During the rainy season, the bus service from Kathmandu to Paanchpokhari stops at Tipane and from there one should walk nearly for 2 days to reach Paanchpokhari through Bhotang.
