Built on a tiny island on Phewa Lake, Barahi temple offers a sanctuary for Hindu worshippers and Buddhists alike. Access the two-storey pagoda via one of the many short (5-minute) private boat rides. Observe the worshippers and idol representing the goddess Durga in the form of a boar. Make an offering, ring a bell, and look at the other Buddha statues around the temple. Pack a picnic to enjoy alongside the old trees and calm surface of the lake. Some food stalls on the island offer fish snacks. A visit to Barahi temple represents just the start of the adventure when you use our Pokhara trip maker site to plot your vacation.

Beautiful place, and the temple, in mid of a beautiful lake. Crowded place, and there was no parking facility as well. No one to assist you or guide you. The ticket counter was closed for the boat, but the boat owners were roaming around and asking for the cash payment.
