Hiking -2081
The college days are precious. We are in almost mid-year of the MPA journey. So, we had planned to make our college journey more fun and memorable. As plan, we went hiking today. Our hiking route was from Chandragiri Hill to Machhegaun.
This morning, we gathered at the Public Administration Campus. Our bus journey started at 7:26 from Balkhu. We danced during the whole bus journey. At 8 AM, we reached the Cable car station at the base of Chandragiri hill. We took the ticket. We have students card. So we got a 25% discount. It costs Rs. 372 per person.
The cable car was offering us a greenery view of the dense forest. After 10 minutes of the cable car, we reached Bhaleshwor Mahadev temple. We worshiped and clicked some group photos there.
Then we started to walk towards Machhegaun. It was a descending staircase. Of course, we faced knee pain. Even though, we enjoyed every staircase by singing, dancing, and capturing every single forest scene.
At 1 PM, we enjoyed lunch at Chhap Danda. It was Nepali food (Dal, Bhat, and Tarkari). The food was really tasty. After lunch, we danced for an hour. Then we walked until 5 PM. At 5:24 PM, we had tea and breakfast at Machhegaun. Then we returned.
I am a horror movie lover. And it was one of my dreams to act in a horror scene. It is fulfilled today. Yes, we filmed a short horror story. It was fun. On the way, colorful wildflowers were blooming. I managed to collect some of them.
Having vloggers, bloggers, film directors, actors, and photographers in the group, we did not miss to capture any moments. Overall, this hike was amazing. Thank you all for your good company. I am really happy and grateful.
