For a view of the breathtaking grandeur of the world's highest peaks from the far west of Dhaulagiri to the east of Mt. Everest, there is no better place than Daman.

From here one has a panoramic view of the Himalayan range.

Kakani is another good location for viewing the mountain scenery.

Nagarkot, located 32 kilometers east of Kathmandu, is one of the most scenic spots in Bhaktapur district and is renowned for its spectacular sunrise view of the Himalaya when the weather is clear.

Phulchoki, a 2.79 meter hill, is a good hiking spot as it offers a spectacular view of the whole Kathmandu Valley.
