Phulchowki holds the distinction of being one of Kathmandu valley’s tallest hills, with a peak at 2,791m. This elevation allows for expansive views of the majestic Himalayas, as well as a panoramic 360-degree vista of the Kathmandu valley. ‘Phulchowki’ translates to ‘Hill of Flowers’, a name that reflects the vibrant plants and rhododendrons populating the dense forests that envelop it. Moreover, the hill carries religious significance with the Phulchowki Mai temple, adorned with prayer flags, taking residence at the summit.

Should time allow, a visit to the Godawori Botanical Garden would be worth considering. It offers a splendid natural experience and a well-liked picnic site in Kathmandu valley.
