The resorts
At the altitude of over 7,000 ft and
facing 200 miles of unobstructed views
of the Himalayas is The Fort Resort and
Retreat. The Fort provides twenty-five
resort rooms, four independent retreat
cottages, conference hall, sauna, and
restaurant with continental, Chinese,
Indian, and Nepali food. The property
has its own organic vegetable garden
which is the largest in Nagarkot. Also,
it has a reading room that is in the
process to be turned into the library
for both the guests' and staffs'
benefit.
The Fort is located in Nagarkot on the
ancient trade route to Tibet. It has
been a place to see the sun rise right
from the peak of the Mt. Everest since
ancient times. Kings and Maharajas came
here to enjoy their summer resorts for
the spectacular view of the Himalayas.
Nagarkot had been a fort since the
Lichhive period and had its own tax and
immigration regulations. As a matter of
fact, the first European, Father Grueber
and Dorville, who entered Nepal in 1661
were received here in Nagarkot by King
Pratap Malla.
