Tansen, Palpa: City Guide and Photography, Tansen, Nepal

Tansen, Nepal is a special city to me because it鈥檚 the place my boyfriend was born. I have to say, I was super excited to see it, but I hadn鈥檛 done any research before arriving. It didn鈥檛 seem necessary since I had a tour guide who was born and raised there. The truth is, I didn鈥檛 expect much, but I was blown away by how much there is to do and see. And don鈥檛 even get me started on the views! We arrived on a hazy day, and you couldn鈥檛 even see into the valley below, but we lucked out. After some rainfall, dust settled and we got crystal clear skies. I鈥檝e never seen the mountains so clearly from so far away! It was kind of insane considering how 24 hours earlier there was no view at all!

Tansen remains off the beaten path for foreign tourists, but it is a destination among locals and those coming from Northern India who want relief from the summer heat. At an altitude just above 1,600m, the climate is gorgeous in the summer. But, I wouldn鈥檛 recommend it in monsoon season as landslides are common on the road to get to Tansen. If you are in Pokhara and decide to head to Lumbini, it鈥檚 conveniently located in the middle making it the perfect place to stop. I鈥檓 honestly not sure why Tansen isn鈥檛 a tourist hot spot. ......
