Chandragiri Hills

Chandragiri Hills is one of the most visited places near Kathmandu, offering stunning panoramic views of the Kathmandu Valley and the Himalayas, including Mount Everest on clear days, accessible via a scenic cable car ride from Thankot. It’s a key tourist spot featuring the ancient Bhaleshwar Mahadev Temple, resorts, restaurants, and recreational activities, serving as a perfect one-day escape for nature lovers, families, and spiritual seekers. Access to the site has been made a lot easier by the establishment of the 2.4km Cable Car to the top. Besides the Panoramic view of the Himalayas, and activities to entertain and amuse guests of all age groups, the location now stands as the ultimate fun destination.
