A three-storied view tower is constructed at Pumdi-Bhumdi VDC neighbouring the tourist city of Pokhara. The VDC is at an altitude of 1500 metres from the sea level. The tower is constructed with an investment of Rs 6.4 million. The tower offers the view of Pokhara city, Phewa Lake, Lekhnath, Sarangkot, Pame, World Peace Stupa and some parts of Syangja, Parbat and Tanahun districts.
