Tours To Dharan
Dharan lies right at the foot of hills, but the transformation when coming from Terai is dramatic. It is a hill town with hill people. Dharan is also the gateway to such towns in eastern hills as Dhankuta which are being developed as regional center for the whole area. Until 1989 there used to be a British Gurkha Camp in Dharan which was used to recruit Gurkha soldiers from the eastern hills. Rais and Limbus from eastern Nepal used to constitute the major portion of Gurkha soldiers. Dharan is now a bustling bazaar town that has grown rapidly. Temples of Dhantakali, Buda Subba and Singha Bahini in Dharan are unique and famous. This hill town is linked by a road with the East-West Highway of Nepal. It takes two hours in bus to reach to Dharan from Biratnagar.
What to See and do
Hiking : Raja Rani Hil is lExcellent spot to view Kanchenjunga, Khumbakarna, Makalu and Mt. Everest. This hill is located 20 km from Dharan
Dharan bazar itself is admittedly not terribly beautiful, but in addition to Bhedetar and Raja Rani hill, it's a great starting point for short hikes and longer treks. If you have a couple of extra days, a visit to Basantapur, the starting point for the tough Kangchenjunga base camp trek, or the lovely village of Hile near Dhankuta, are great add-ons to a Dharan visit.
