The famous Mahendra Gufa (cave), named after Late King Mahendra, is situated on the northern end of Pokhara. The limestone cave is lit with electric lights and has some interesting stalactite as well as stalagmite rocks. After about a 10 minutes walk from Mahendra Gufa, you’ll arrive at the Bat Cave. Thousands of bats hang from the ceiling of this cave. Since the cave is unlit, bring your own torch or hire a guide for Rs 30 (50 cents). The caves remain open from 7 am to 6 pm daily. There is an admission fee of Rs 10 (20 cents).
