Tansen is an old western Newari city with an amazing history and some marvelous Nawari architecture. It lies about 30 kilometers north of Butwal and 120 kilometers from Pokhara. Approach roads are mostly good but winding. Altitude is higher than Kathmandu 4600 ft/1500 mtrs so weather is lovely in hot monsoon season!
It is a wonderful "hill station" in development with great views of the Himals and very interesting Palpali culture and history.
