needs is a unique and educating experience. This new concept has
captured the imagination of many a tourist and is rapidly
gaining popularity. Anybody wishing to truly experience Nepal
ought to go for it. There is no better way to understand the
Nepali way of life and to enjoy Nepali hospitality as Peace
Corps. Volunteers have known for decades.
It
is a simple concept of putting you up with a host family who
have been trained on hygiene and giving the best service to
tourists. All requisite amenities are there for you in the
simplest form. Enjoy the tranquility and simplicity of a village
life and savour the fresh air and the beauty of the Nepali
countryside. Visitors are provided the simplest of
accommodations right there in the middle of the village. But
comfort and clean surroundings are guaranteed. Clean toilets,
running water and typical Nepali food help to make your stay

which naturally guarantees their freshness.

Nepalese.. Walking about the village and observing the daily

villagers. There is much to see besides the mountains, valleys
and rivers. Watch the kids herding cattle or the women tilling
fields, milking cows, fetching water or cooking their simple
meals.
Sirubari
Village
One
of the villages that has earned a name for itself is Sirubari.
Perched 1,700m above sea level not far from Pokhara, it
is at the moment the best place to sample village tourism. The
villagers are simple Gurung folk, a Mongoloid people. This
ethnic group has seen much employment in the British Gurkha
forces over the centuries. These typical Nepalese villagers will
look after you, entertain you and give you a taste of true
Nepali hospitality, which you are not likely to experience in
the cities. A short excursion to Thumro, which is an hour’s
walk away is rewarding with its breathtaking view. A stay at
Sirubari is without a doubt a rewarding and unforgettable
experience for any foreigner.
For
a unique experience in life, there is nothing like village
tourism. The best time to be in Sirubari is around
September-October.
