pokhara
I love pokhara and I m proud to write something about pokhara.Pokhara is a remarkable place of natural beauty. Situated at an altitude of 827m from the sea level and 200km west of Kathmandu valley, the city is known as a center of adventure. The enchanting city with a population of around 95,000 has several beautiful lakes and offers stunning panaromic views of Himalayan peaks. The serenity of lakes and the magnificence of the Himalayas rising behind them create an ambience of peace and magic. So today the city has not only become the starting point for most popular trekking and rafting destinations but also a place to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature.
Pokhara is part of a once vibrant trade route extending between India and Tibet. To this day, mule trains can be seen camped on the outskirts of the town, bringing goods to trade from remote regions of the Himalaya. This is the land of Magars and Gurungs, hardworking farmers and valorous warriors who have earned worldwide fame as Gurkha soldiers. The Thakalis, another important ethnic group here, are known for their entrepreneurship.
The climate of Pokhara is slightly warmer than Kathmandu with daytime temperature hovering around 15 degrees Celsius in winter and 35 degrees in summer. The monsoon season which lasts from mid-June to mid-September is very wet; in fact Pokhara records the |
highest rainfall in the country. Best time to visit is between October and April.
The activities of foreign visitors to Pokhara focus around two districts known as Damside and Lakeside (or Pardi and Baidam, in Nepali, respectively). These two areas, with their strips of hotels and restaurants, are a few kilometers south-west of the main Pokhara bazaar.

Hospitality
Hospitality
Concept and nature of hospitality
As we can define hospitality through many way, through my view hospitality is reception and entertainment of gust, visitor, or Stanger with liberality and goodwill the most important aspect of the hospitality personifies warm welcome, reception and cordiality however, in hostility industry the warm reception invariably includes providing a pleasant environment by means of its available facilities and activities.
Also when I was reading about the hospitality industry I found a book where the English speaker created the distinction of hospitality industry according to evolutionary process of tourism activities in the late century. in the text, the word the hotel is used generic ally to include motels and inns.
Hospitality industry is gradually and especially stratified into two sectors:
Private sector
Public sector
Accommodation, catering, transport, travel agency, tour operators, entertainment and leisure products guide and information services fall in private sector.
Planning and development, transport, power, immigration, custom and excise, marketing, licensing, and regulation fall in public sector.
The new names of hospitality industry have increasingly been created by the retailer of it’s business, namely hotel, resort, guest house, rest house, safari lodge, cottage pop bar and other trade groups. it has to be focused on the basic needs of guest and they are ;physical e.g a safe and comfortable surroundings to live in, quality food and beverage, and excellent service; psychological, e.g the urg to buy, it can be helped by indirectly advertising the various in the establishment that may appeal to them; social e.g guest/visitors want a pleasant atmosphere for relaxation and entertainment; practical eg guest/visitors want facilities for travel arrangement.
For us to fit in hospitality services, one should ha the virtue of friendliness, helpfulness and willingness towards the guest. The service is about creating a sense of well being in guests, making them fell welcome and valued, and at the same time ensuring that their needs are looked after. In the hospitality industry. Good service means giving guest a little more than expected. Guest’s needs and expectations must be always anticipated by the employees. This will not only bring profit to the establishment but also will yield extra individual benefits to the staff.
Hence: Hospitality industry is dedicated to provide quality, product and service to the gust under xenial conditions.
To fit in hospitality service, one should have the virtue of friendliness, helpfulness and willingness towards the guest.

Value of time
We know that times play a vital role in our life so I m writing something about value of time as on There are things that just happen every time and with everyone. Same is the case with time. Most of the times we take it for granted that there is always plenty of time. Due to this perhaps we indulge in various activities, which are a wholesale waste of time.
The clock is always ticking. The seconds keep on ticking just like busy ants. The ants keep themselves always busy by always hunting for food everywhere. Similarly the seconds always keep on ticking to attain short-term goals of making a minute with 60 ticks. After reaching a milestone of a minute the second's hand of a clock don't take a break, but start afresh for another round of 60 ticks. The take it minute by minute and inadvertently reach a quarter of an hour, and hour and then a day. They always focus on the smaller targets- that is a minute and the bigger aim of the clock itself gets fulfilled. That's why the minutes hand have to work less, as the seconds hand does most of the running around. The minute hand just has to make 60 movements on a clock dial. The hours hand is the luckiest of the lot. It just moves for 12 times in an hour. But the seconds hand movies for 3600 times around the dial for the same hour!
Parallel to this, in our life to we never realizes that we have lots to do. Between every big task we can always find enough time to fit in a plethora of smaller tasks. If you are waiting for a train at the station, you can always read a magazine or rather chalk out your study timetable for exams. While traveling in the bus too one can find enough time to at least skim through the previous days notes.
Be like the clock. Always keep on ticking by involving yourself in various things and learning new things. These small knowledge and experience modules will perhaps one day take you to your bigger goal some day. They say "Time and Tide waits for no man". If so, now stop staring at the screen and utilize your time effectively!
love
In my view Love is difficult to define. How do you avoid confusing it with infatuation or lust? i m writing this blogs by thinking i don't think i could define love but after when i fell it and words come automatically in my mind because i love the word love,i am searching love on some one towards me and i hope some one will help me to........................., not only me now all the teenage falls in love with someone because love will not be by creating and saying that i love u because Love is something that you feel, though have a hard time describing. Every which word you choose to describe love, just doesn't seem to do it justice. It's a warm feeling of butterflies in your stomach, overwelming adoration, intense passion and caring.
my friends told me that "Love is encompassing. accepting. believing. hoping.enduring. "Love is as perennial as the grass" it keeps growing. Love is healing and a great aid in understanding...not only the one you love, but your self. It has been said that love affects your eyesight. Where love is strong, faults are few. You choose to let trifles pass and deliberately set out to create a happy moment. Happiness becomes habitual as long as loving is active. Love can be passionate, tender, gentle and protective. Love knows freedom from fear. The love and liberty that is given comes back. Love does not exist without respect for boundaries and the right to privacy and choice. Love is not ownership or possession. It is the best soil for a super abundant life...love is a living growing energizing life-sustaining, enriching...life itself. also i write this blogs to give some knoladge about love for all my frn's who visit my site and read this blogs so i little bet copy from other sourses to make clear about love,at first i only want to write about my love story but after i write about love and i define love from diffrent veiw so i know this will help my frns to know something about love from my side so i try to write something
And Most of my friend told me that the definition of love as a strong romantic attachment between two people, often intermingled with sexual desire and attraction.but i find that people defined love more broadly, encompassing many relationships. These forms of love and affection hold true today, although may not be the first definition that comes to mind when one hears the word. For example:
Love among family members; familial love, or love based on kinship ties
A mother’s love for her offspring
Love of neighbor, based on the Christian teaching of expressing concern and charity for all people
Love of country, or patriotism
Love of God, or expressive love for a deity or deities but god........
Here i have tried to define love through several definitions.which are compressed from other defi..
1-Love is a feeling of strong connection and attachment those are persuaded by extreme delight and admiration; dedication and devotion to each other along with affection and tenderness.
2-Love is not a necessity, but it is life's greatest gift and luxury. It is to care, to be kind and patient. It is considered as perfect love when a person doesn't expect anything else but love.
3-Love is like a disease. All humans affected by love may do enormously stupid things or turn overprotective for the things they love. Love is like a drug. It's a natural "high", but sooner or later you'll have to go through mandatory and painful withdrawal.
4-love is an illusion
5-Also love is define as a strong positive emotion of; affection or pleasure
History of lumbini
Lumbini is the traditional birthplace of Gautama Buddha, the founder of Buddhism, who was born in the 7th or 6th century BC.
According to Buddhist tradition, Maya Devi (or Mayadevi) gave birth to the Buddha on her way to her parent's home in Devadaha in the month of May in the year 642 BC. Feeling the onset of labor pains, she grabbed hold of the branches of a shade tree and gave birth to Siddharta Gautama, the future Buddha. The Buddha is said to have announced, "This is my final rebirth" as he entered the world. Buddhist tradition also has it that he walked immediately after his birth and took seven steps, under each of which a lotus flower bloomed.
In 249 BC, the Buddhist convert Emperor Ashoka visited Lumbini and constructed four stupas and a stone pillar. Ashoka's Pillar bears an inscription that translates as: "King Piyadasi (Ashoka), beloved of devas, in the 20 year of the coronation, himself made a royal visit, Buddha Sakyamuni having been born here, a stone railing was built and a stone pillar erected to the Bhagavan ["blessed one"] having been born here. Lumbini village was taxed reduced and entitled to the eight part (only)".
Monasteries and temples were built at Lumbini until the 9th century, but Buddhism declined in the area after the arrival of Islam and later Hinduism. All that remained was a sculpture, revered by local women as a fertility symbol. The garden of the Buddha's birth was lost for a thousand years.
The site was rediscovered in 1895, when a German archaeologist came upon Ashoka's Pillar, identified by its inscription. Records made by the Chinese pilgrim Fa Xian were also used in the process of identifying this religiously acclaimed site. Lumbini was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997.
