Bandipur  is one of the perfect easily accessible destination to view the best panoramic view of snow mountain in Nepal. As it is situated on the middle sized hill top at an altitude of 1030m  in between Kathmandu and Pokhara Highway. Besides,Bandipur is famous for its picturesque town nestled in the Himalayan foothills of Nepal and its natural beauty. Bandipur  provides panoramic mountain views of the entire Annapurna ranges, Dhaulagiri, Manaslu and Ganesh Himal Range. Apart from the pristine mountain views, you will get chance to observe Newari culture, visit awesome caves, unspoiled landscapes and incredible architecture. It is a big settlement of Newar, who were migrated from Bhaktapur(another historic city near Kathmandu) in the nineteenth century. Along with their migration, the Newars brought with them their rich cultural heritage and architecture, which still defines the look and feel of today’s Bandipur. Bandipur is an outpost of the refined civilization of the Kathmandu Valley, and it is an ideal retreat to soak in this fabulous heritage along with the natural splendor of the surroundings.

Once in a time, Bandipur was a trading center of Nepal and Tibet trade route.
