About this place

Summary

Below Phulchowki in Godawari, Nepal's National Botanical Garden spreads across 80-odd hectares of lawns, orchid houses, cactus beds, and giant Himalayan trees — the valley's favorite picnic ground. Pair it with the Phulchowki road or the Godawari temple spring, and bring a mat: this is what Sundays are for.
