Pokhara is perhaps the most beautiful place in the world! 

 The Good: Beautiful views of the Annapurna range, the Fewa Tal lake, treks around Sarangkot, The Buddhist stupa, close to the trekking routes, rafting and para gliding trips, full moon parties across the lake, some night life, live music, variety of accommodation and restaurants.

The Bad: A very touristy atmosphere, many touts, package tourist from Europe, crowded in season, maybe cloudy or haze from dust after March.  Burning of plastic and garbage is terrible. Political problems abound.
