Pokhara - Transportation

Transportation

Public transit: Pokhara has several bus routes, mainly running the length of the city from north to south as well as east to west as well to the nearby villages and towns. The public transport mainly consists of buses, vans (locally known as micro-bus) and metered-taxis (frequently meter rule is ignored and meter tampering is common, so the locals almost always bargain with the driver before riding the taxi).

Inter-City connections: Pokhara is well connected to rest of the country through permanent road and air links. The main mode of transportation are public buses and the Purano Bus Park is the main hub for buses plying country wide. The all-season airport with regular flights to Kathmandu, Mustang are operated by various domestic and a few international airlines. Pokhara Airport is set to be upgraded into an international airport.
