          Devi's Fall is a familiar tourism Place of pokhara. It is very beautiful area of pokhara to visit. It lies on app. 5 km Far from central market of pokhara city on the western part.The water fall got that name Devi's Fall has a story behind that,many years ago a man named Devis visit there sudden he fall fron the top of that water fall and he dead on the spot. That was the very sad story but that's why water fall got name Devi's Fall.  
       
Mostly every time people visit Devi's Fall. Winter or summer they visit cut in my opinion the summer season is the best season for visit Devi's Fall in that time You enjoy the fall the water amount is highly increased at that time. In winter place look beautiful just the water level is down.


Most visit when you're in Devi's Fall area:
        Just few minutes far there is a cave named Gupteshor cave. From that cave you can see Devi's Fall from inside. It looks so amazing when you are inside of that cave. There are temple of load Shiva,the water passing from there which came from Devi's Fall.   
        



From here, you can go for trekking for Ghandruk, Chiness Ghumba, sikhles etc and those villages, where you can get the cultural taste of village.

Fewa Lake is a lake of Nepal located in the Pokhara Valley. It is the second largest lake in Nepal and lying at an altitude of 784 m (2,572 ft) it covers an area of about 4.43 km2 (1.7 sq mi) with an average depth of about 8.6 m (28 ft) with maximum water depth is 22.8 m (75 ft) when measured with echo-sounder (depth measuring gauge; PLASTIMO ECHOTEST II) on 5 December 2009. Maximum water capacity of the lake is approximately 46 million cubic meters (37,000 acre feet). Annapurna range himchuli range are the main himalayen range which can we seen from there and the reflection of Mount Machapuchare on its surface the moment when we see that was the heart taking moment. The holy Barahi temple is located on the island which is the middle of lake lake.

Location
 The eastern Pokhara Valley receives irrigation water through a canal running from a reservoir by the Seti River in the north of the city. Fewa Lake is also used for commercial fishing. The tourist area is along the north shore of the lake (Lake Side and Dam Side). It is mainly made up of little shops, little hotels, restaurants and bars. The larger hotels can be found on the southern and south-eastern fringes of the Pokhara city, from where the view of the mountains, mainly Machapuchare, or Fishtail Mountain, is seen best. To the east of the valley are few smaller and few bigger lakes, the largest being Begnas Tal and Rupakot Tal.
