The students of grade 9 and 10 of Vidhya Vikash Secondary Boarding School were taken to Bandipur-Pokhara-Sarangkot for 3 days. It was an excursion. Excursions are must, especially for students. They have a great educational value and hence, schools often organize excursions for students. Apart from education and exposing students to various experiences, it is a great means of recreation too. It is a day all students wait for eagerly.
On the morning of 21st december, we gathered at the school perifery. We all were very excited. We all left for Bandipur at about 7 AM .
We all weere singing, shouting and dancing in the bus. Our first destination was sidda cave. It is the second largest cave of Asia. Our hiking to the cave was really adventrous and we all were thrilled. Then we all left for Bandipur which is a living museum of Newari culture. It is a town having row of traditional houses linked with the main street. This town has a laidback charm and contrasts with the rush and pollution of capital Kathmandu. We reached Bandipur at night and stayed in a hotel.
Early morning we went for morning walk to enjoy the beautiful scenes.
Our next destination was Pokhara which is crowned by the majestic himalayas and conjures vision of calm but vibrant green hills. We went in World Peace Stupa there which is a paradise. It is build in top of a hill overlooking phewa lake, and the stupa offers a great place to see the mountains.
We all checked in our hotels inmediately after returning from stupa and after having dinner we left for davis falls. It is a waterfall named after a swiss woman "Davi" who died there.
Although the sun had already started to set, we didn't call it a day and went to phewa lake for boating. We all were mesmarized by its beauty and all of us immediately started boating. We did a quick worship in taal barahi temple and checked in our hotel. We all went to our rooms, got fresh and went for dinner. We danced and sang for a while and went to bed. We all were said to wake up early in the morning to witness the snow capped mountains and sunrise drom sarangkot which is a hill station near pokhara. We saw unobstructed views of mountains, beautiful green hills and picturesque view of pokhara valley. After observing sunrise we immediately left for hotel, had breakfast in hotel, and left for Begnas lake. The lake which is surrounded by pristine nature and vibrant hills.
Then we returned back to Kathmandu with the same spirit ; shouting and dancing. The only difference was that we were returning with a lot of beautiful and unforgottable moments. Despite being tired of a three day long trip, we all were very much excited to share our travel diaries with our families.
We are also very thankful for our teachers for having organized such a beautiful trip. And on top of that we all really appreciate the works of travel talents(info@traveltalents.com
