Fish Tail Mountain
Fish Tail Mountain, locally known as Machhapuchhre, is a majestic peak in the Annapurna range near Pokhara, Nepal. Standing at 6,993 meters, it is renowned for its distinct shape, resembling the tail of a fish. Machhapuchhre holds deep cultural and religious significance, as it is considered sacred to the local Gurung community and is believed to be the home of Lord Shiva. Its striking beauty, with snow-capped peaks that reflect in the serene waters of Phewa Lake, makes it a prominent symbol of Pokhara’s natural allure. Climbing the mountain is forbidden, preserving its untouched splendor.
