Origins and history.<\/h2>\n\n

Pokhara takes its name from the Nepalese word “Pokhari”, meaning “lake”. The city has historically been an important trading center, linking India to Tibet. Founded in the 16th century, Pokhara flourished as a vital trading point. Its strategic location along ancient trade routes made it a meeting place for merchants and pilgrims. As such, its history is closely linked to trade and spirituality. Today, thanks to thanks in particular to the enthusiasm of mountaineers and tourists from all horizons to visit Nepal ‘s remote provinces , Pokhara has also become a landmark for tourists. <\/p>\n\n
