Overview
Located in transit from Kathmandu to Pokhara, Bandipur is an impeccable area for the seekers of good perspectives of the Himalayas and peace and tranquility. Initially a Magar town, Bandipur transformed into a prosperous trading center as Newars moved to the village to grow their trade amongst India and Tibet. The delightful houses with their neoclassical sashes and covered windows at Bandipur will without a doubt devour your eyes amid an intensive exploration. The medieval-looking Bandipur Bazaar that ranges in a delicate bend along the highest point of the slope in an east-west hub offers the immense scene of the Himalayas including the Annapurna and Manaslu massifs.
