             Gorkha is a unique historical place of Nepal. It belongs to the history of Shah dynasty. Prithivi Narayan Shah who unified our country was the King of Gorkha. Last year, we visited this historical place. It was our school excursion. We class ten students along with five teachers visited it eagerly. We want there by school bus.

            We started our journey at 6:00 a.m. early in the morning. We arrived at Muglin at 9:00 o’clock. We had some snacks and tea there and got on the bus. After and hour, we reached Abukhaireni. We got off the bus and walked through the market. It is a small and beautiful market. After 15 minutes, we got on the bus and started our journey to gorkha. After one and a half hours, we reached the bus stop of Gorkha bazzar. We got off the bus and had our meal in a nearby hotel.

             After our meal, we walked through the market. It is a small town. Most of the buildings are normal. Some of them are traditional. We saw that only a few buildings are modern. The people of Gorkha are helpful; we realized it. We visited most of the government offices. We interviewed some of the officials in order to get information. They helped us completely. Then, we started our visit to the historical places and things of Gorkha.

            We started our trekking along the stone-paved route that climbs up the hill. The place is too steep. We climbed up the hill slowly. After a few minutes, we saw an ancient and famous historical building of Gorkha. It is called Tallo Darbar (Lower Palace). It is an old building which was artistically built. We saw beautiful wood carvings of the doors and windows. It has a big yard. We sat there for a few minutes. We took some photographs. Then we climbed up the hill along the stone-paved steps. We reached Gorkha Darbar after half and hour. It was the main palace of King Prithivi Narayan Shah. It was beautifully built. Attractive wood carvings and sculpture seem to be really eye-catching. We realized that everyone’s heart is easily illuminated by the beauty existing in this historical place. We saw that there were some arms inside the palace. We also visited the temple of goddess Kalika which is very close to the palace. We worshipped her and got flowers and Tika. And we hope we were blessed by her.

             We could see some now-capped mountain peaks. We took some photographs in the pine forest and at the palace as well. We realized that it is also naturally beautiful. Most of our friends felt entire excitement. Then, we went to the place where there is a statue of King Ram Shah. It was artistically made. We took some photographs there.
