Two Beautiful Lake

I have been posting several pictures of my hometown Pokhara.Here again I am posting few pictures of very popular lakes Fewa lake and Begnas lake around my hometown and Nepal.
Here are the pictures of Fewa Lake taken form my n95 . Fewa lake is the second largest lake of Nepal lying at an altitude of 784 m (2,572 ft) located in Pokhara.It covers an area of about 4.43 km2 (1.7 sq mi) and is about 8.6 m (28 ft) deep.Phewa lake is famous for the reflection of Mount Machapuchare on its surface and the holy Barahi Mandir (Temple) is situated in the middle of this lake.

There is a Restaurant right on the top from where you can have the complete view of the lake.I love going to this place during the weekends and holidays and enjoy my day with few bottles of chilled beer and delicious fish fry .

Hi there, you have some nice pictures in here. I like the 1st picture where the people are taking the boat out into the lake. Where are they going? I also like the way the colour of the boats contrasts with the surrounding and the composition of the picture.

Pokhara really is a Heaven on Earth. Your Pictures are nice but I found Copyright info very distracting. If you manage to keep it small or blend with picture, it would be better.
Keep clicking...
