mahendra cave nepal


Mahendra Cave is one of the most prominent Tourist Attractions in Pokhara. Pokhara is a major city in Nepal that is located between the Greater Himalaya and Mahabharata Range. This enthralling city of Pokhara is set amidst the tranquil and serene valley, which is the gateway to the world of excitement, natural beauty and adventure. The Mahendra Cave is one site that adds to the charm of the city. You can site the Mahendra Cave at Batulechaur. It will take you just about ten minutes drive from the central market place of the city. As the name of the cave suggests, it has been named after the Late King Mahendra Bir Bikram Shah Dev. Over the years, this has become one of the most visited tourist spots in Pokhara.

It is interesting to note that Mahendra Cave in Pokhara is a natural tunnel that is illuminated artificially. It is recommended to take a torch or light with you for your safety inside the cave. This cave is internationally famous for its rich rock varieties. These rocks are said to sparkle when lights strike on it. Here, you can find big boulders of rocks that are used to block several opening of the caves. Several stalactites in the cave create an eerie effect among the travelers.
