Overview

During the Chandragiri Cable Car Tour, you can see the Kathmandu valley and its surroundings from the mountaintop. The Chandragiri Hiking Trail is a new route that circles the Kathmandu Valley. There is a cable car accessible for transit here. It is located seven kilometers southwest of Thankot, at a height of 2551m/ 8369 ft above sea level, on the southern side of Kathmandu Valley. The Buddhist and Hindu religions coexist on this mountaintop. From the peak, you can see the beautiful Kathmandu Valley between the hills and the Himalayas, from Annapurna to Everest. Chandragiri Cable Car Tour is the ideal place to visit for both Nepalis and tourists. It is situated in a lovely green hill station and would make for an excellent day trip from Kathmandu Valley. It takes around 20 minutes to be at Chandragiri summit viewpoint, which is extremely popular with Hindu pilgrims because it features a massive Lord Shiva temple at the top of a hill.

Historical Background

Before the unification of Nepal, there were numerous petty kingdoms scattered across the country. Prithivi Narayan Shah was a legendary monarch who began to conquer Nepal by uniting all of the petty kingdoms. Kathmandu used to be a powerful and wealthy kingdom, and Prithvi Naryan Shah’s father-in-law’s state was Makwanpur. Therefore he used to come here to strategize on how to defeat Kathmandu. That is why the King’s statue is found at Chandragiri.
