About

Kalinchowk has become one of the most popular destinations among the travelers of Nepal as it mesmerizes them with wowsome sceneries of snow-capped mountain ranges. Also, Kalinchowk is regarded as a pious pilgrimage for Hindus. It lies on the northeast side of Kathmandu city. The 6-7 hours offroad drive via Dhulikhel, Mude, Charikot leads you to this beautiful snow hill station. The best time to visit this amazing destination is from October to February, as the chances of snowfall are very high.

The first stop of the tour, Kuri village, is heaven to those who wish to experience & enjoy live snowfall and play with the snow. The adventurous beings seeking skiing would also love this place.

To get "darshan" of Kalinchowk Bhagwati, one of Nepal's most popular Hindu pilgrimage sites, you can take a 10 minutes cable car ride from Kuri village. The temple is devoted to goddess Kali, an incarnation of goddess Durga and devotees believe that getting darshan of her would fulfill their “vakal.” Standing at the elevation of 3842 meters, the temple serves as a viewpoint to the Kuri village and mountains like Annapurna, Manaslu, Ganesh, etc.

In our Kalinchowk tour package, you can enjoy a visit to one of the oldest temples in Dolakha, Bhimsenthan Mandir, which is approximately 4.5 km east of Charikot. The temple is roofless in the center and has a triangular-shaped stone idol of Lord Bhimsen. The idol is believed to resemble three deities: Bhimeshwar in the morning, Mahadeva throughout the day, and Narayan in the evening. An amazing fact is that the Bhimsen statue drips sweat-like fluid from time to time which is considered a bad omen for the country. It is believed that Bhimsen himself tries to protect his people by warning them through sweating.

Back then, when Nepal was a kingdom, there was a tradition to collect the sweat in cotton and then send it to the royal family, who would, in return, offer two goats and some Money"Dakshina" to prevent the mishaps. However, this custom came to a halt after Nepal went through significant political changes.

To be precise, this package is suitable for an individual, couples, or families who wish to travel to the nearby destination of Kathmandu. Your wish to travel short but get some relaxation, pay homage to Kalichowk Bhagawati, experience live snowfall, and get the adrenaline rush with adventurous activities like skiing and cable car rides gets fulfilled with our affordable Kalinchowk package.
