Plan a trip to Dhulikhel

Dhulikhel has been for centuries an important trading centre on the commercial route linking Nepal to Tibet. People of Nepal travel to Tibet to bring home salt and gold. Likewise, the Tibetans travel with their flocks of sheep into Nepal during Dashain, the greatest Hindu festival. In those days, a whole day walk from Kathmandu to Dhulikhel was comfortable for Tibet trippers with easily available of food and water at Dhulikhel at the evening for overnight stay. After adjoining with Tibet by motorable road in 1965, Dhulikhel got a face lift and developed as a tourist destination. Dhulikhel is an ideal station to stop for overnight stay while going to Tibet and coming back to Kathmandu.
