Chandragiri Hill (Nepal)

Chandragiri Hill ( Nepali: चन्द्रागिरी ) is seven kilometres from Thankot, and lies on the south-west side of Kathmandu Valley which is 2551 metres above sea level.

Chandragiri is where Prithivi Narayan Shah decided to annex the beautiful Nepal valley into his Gorkha Kingdom.

Standing at 8,268 feet, the hill is a serene escape into nature, enriched by the historical significance of the Baleshwar Temple at its summit.

Visitors can enjoy a scenic cable car ride, which provides a stunning perspective of the lush valley below and the towering, snow-capped mountains.

Chandragiri Hill's natural beauty and peaceful atmosphere make it a must-visit destination for those seeking tranquility and spectacular views.
