Ok so now you are in Chitlang,what next???Where to visit??
There are many historical places like Satdhara,Swochandda Bhairab Temple,Markhu,Kulekhani (about 2 hour walk from Chitlang),Bhedafaram,Shikhardham temple,Krishna Mandir in Bisinkhel,and lot more.
1.Swochhanda Bhairab.
Famous Bhairab temple located at the side of clean flowing river,near to forest,no human settlement nearby,but most beatufil and scenic place.You can worship ,visist nearby Khakhu-8, village( about 15 min from temple ,(or if you are thinking of shouting loud then do that as well because less people travel there on normal day ;-0).Just a 5 minutes from Narayanhiti,30 minutes from Shochandra Bhairab high school.
2.Satdhara
One of the iconc place in Chitlang is Satdhara,the seven stonetap with flowing water.If you are in Chitlang ,just a hour trek(maximum).Get there ,while going there you get to see the local Newar community,their culture,way of life,little bit of jungle walk.
3.Bhedafaram(Nepal's largest ground)
You must have seen that scenic beautiful layered place in lots of music videos and get amused ,does this place lie in Nepal ,yes its in Nepal ,and its Vedafaram.No word to describe the scene you are going to enjoy there.(Whenever I get there and see the Kulekhani and Markhu village,I never felt like returning home).So scenic ,like its a movie set,not a real place. A must visit place.It take about and half hour to reach there,can get there easily by trekking straight way,consult local if you don't know road,they are always happy to help you.Need to go through jungle ,with less frequent people walking,so if you are alone think twice ,because you would be the only one to enjoy the scene ,so who would take the photo huh????
5.Krishna temple in Bisinkhel
This is the temple of Krishna ,famous in Chitlang,not exactly in Chitlang but about 1 and half hour walk.
6.Shikhardham
Located at the top of Lamichhane village,this temple of Shiva is located just below the jungle ,peaceful, and from there you can see the Chitlang that tour operators or other normally don't take you,It is at the top of Brahmin settlement ,you get to explore the life style of people there,a real village life,culture and ways of Brahmin,a true face of Nepal.(Not all Lamichhane and Brahmin,but 99% almost).From there you can go to Khaliban,Kuchbu to experience typical Newar and Tamang settlements.
7.Markhu,Kulekhani
Boating,eating fish, or just seeing the beautiful lake,Markhu Kulekhani is idle place..Nepal's largest amn made lake,you will be asking yourself " is this man made???"
