Pokhara is considered one of the most attractive tourist destinations for domestic and foreign tourists due to its mountain views, caves, Taltalaiya, cultural and natural heritage. Patale Chango, which is the exit of Phewa Lake, is a beautiful and attractive place for those who come to Pokhara. This chango in Chhorepatan of Pokhara-17 always attracts tourists. This waterfall that descends below the ground towards Gupteswar cave looks beautiful in rainy season.
Due to the Covid, there has been a decrease in the number of visitors to Chango for the past two years, but the number of tourists has increased rapidly after Dashain. Most of the Indian tourists and students come on educational tours. The statistics of the number of tourists who come to see Chongo in the number of 3 to 3,500 every day from all countries. Ten years ago, thousands of tourists used to come to see it daily.
There are 2,300 students in the school. There are 25 teacher posts from the government level. Since there are 70 teachers and staff from the private level, most of the money collected from fees is spent on salaries and allowances. Since 2035, the school has been collecting entry fees from tourists visiting Patale Chongo.
40 percent of the income will be spent on the management of the forest and the remaining 60 percent will be spent on the educational and physical development of the school.
Anyone who comes here can easily see tourists take selfies and enjoy the coolness of the water coming from the waterfall.
A Swiss tourist named David went missing after falling from this waterfall in 1961, so the name of this waterfall has remained Davi's fall. There is a 500 meter underground water flow and 100 feet-deep water flow in the chango and it is considered attractive to see the chango from Jestha to Asoj.
Flower gardens around Chango, traditional houses, artificial scenery of mountains, Buddha statues and photo-taking places with different tribal costumes also attract tourists. This tourist spot, which has an area of about 12 ropani, is crowded with domestic and Indian tourists. The ticket price for viewing is Rs 20 per student, Rs 40 for Nepalese and Rs 80 for foreigners and Rs 100 for foreigners.
"The Paatele Chango was very beautiful. Fewa Lake, Gupteshwar and Mahendra Caves, museums and other places here are beautiful", said Poonam Kumari, a resident of Bharat Vihar Pradesh, who arrived to observe the Patale Chango.
“The income from the fee will be used for the salary of 70 teachers hired from private sources and the salary of the staff employed in Chango,” said the principal of the school, Dilliram Sharma._Rss
