There is something about the scenic beauty and tranquillity of
the majestic peaks that just makes you want to stay there
forever and breathe in the pure fresh air. Dhulikhel in the
Kathmandu Valley is one such place, which offers picturesque
views of the high Himalayas and the range of peaks that it
comprises of, right from the Langtang Lirung in the west to the
Dorje Lakpa, Gauri Shankar and Melungtse, and then Numbur
in the east. You just have to be willing to climb a little over the
village to enjoy these panoramic views. Getting to Dhulikhel is
quite easy. The town lies on the intersection of the Arniko
highway and the BP Highway, only 32 kilometres to the east
side of the Kathmandu Valley. One can quickly get here by a
public bus, or by driving one's own car. Buses from
Kathmandu's Ratna Park frequently ply here and will take you
to your destination in only 2 hours, at a cost of mere INR 60.
Dhulikhel is a genuine Newari town and is thus the perfect
place to visit if you want to explore the authentic culture and
heritage of the area. This is perhaps why people often prefer to
stay here for about two nights so that they can thoroughly
explore this quaint little area and soak in the mountain

village, and tourists simply set on foot to wander around.

step.
This industry is not limited to leisure and travel for fun. It includes
formal and informal travelling, such as people traveling across the
world for business, education, entertainment, holidays, and more.
Customer focus is crucial for the success of this industry, along
with leniency, relationship management, and many other skills.
