Gorakhpur to Nepal Flight

Located favourably on the banks of Rapti and Rohani rivers, Gorakhpur is an ancient city in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh. It shares one of its borders with Nepal and due to this, it serves as a stopover for tourists who want to reach Nepal. There are many places of religious importance in Gorakhpur that attract several tourists from near and far. Gorakhnath Temple, dedicated to Saint Gorakhnath, is one of the major attractions of this city. Built in the 12th Century, this temple was attacked many times by the Mughals. But, it was rebuilt and today it stands as one of the most architecturally magnificent temples of the city. Another place worth-visiting in Gorakhpur is the Gita Press. Though known widely as a publication house, mainly of religious books, it is more than that. The building of the press is designed wonderfully in the shape of a temple, with marble walls that are decorated with inscriptions and pictures from the epic Mahabharata. The interiors of the building are adorned with paintings and wall hangings that reveal stories of Lord Rama and Lord Krishna. Arogya Mandir, Veer Bahadur Singh Planetarium, Imambara and Geeta Vatika are other places of tourist interest in Gorakhpur. MakeMyTrip offers many travel packages, amongst which tourists can avail any one as per their preference and explore this city comfortably.

Nepal, an acronym for ‘Never Ending Peace and Love’, is a cultural powerhouse of the Himalayas. Sheltered by the majestic Himalayas, golden temples, charming hill villages and jungle wildlife, Nepal is special and populated by some of the most beautiful people on the planet. Kathmandu, the capital city, is a unique amalgamation of culture and modernity; famous for the old royal palace at Durbar Square, a UNESCO Heritage Site, now on the mend! The Kathmandu Valley in particular offers an unrivalled collection of world-class palaces, hidden backstreet shrines and sublime temple art. A visit to Swayambhunath (or Monkey temple) is an essential experience in Kathmandu. An adventurer’s paradise- trekking the rugged trails of the Everest, the Annapurnas and beyond, rafting on a roaring Nepali river or bungee jumping into a yawning Himalayan gorge, canoeing, climbing, kayaking, paragliding and mountain biking; Pokhara offers the perfect array of activities for that adrenaline kick. Spare a day to spot some wildlife at the Chitwan National Park. For the spirituals ones, enroll in a short course on Buddhist Studies or Tibetan at the Rangjung Yeshe Institute, stopping en route to visit the birthplace of Buddha on the steamy plains near Lumbini or Bhaktapur, with its cobbled streets and red-brick houses, temples and statues at every street corner. An enchanting blend of Hindu and Buddhist mysticism, Nepal is a peaceful land. Try the traditional Nepali and Tibetan cuisine; shaphale, chhoyla, momos, sel roti, dhindo! Nepal is just a step away from heaven; you can book your flights with MakeMyTrip India.
