Daman
Daman is located at Makwanpur district, 80 km southwest of Kathmandu valley at the altitude of 2322m above sea level. Daman has the longest stretch of himalayan range of 400km from Everest to the east to Dhaulagiri to the west, the longest himalayan range you see from anywhere in Nepal with view of Ganesh, Makalu and Annapurna mountains. You can have clear view of sunrise and sunset from Daman rather than Nagarkot and Phulchoki( Hills nearby Kathmandu).

Personal Experience
I went to Daman last year to visit. It was the time of spring. It was
one of the most beautiful I visited in Nepal. The coniferous forest add beauty
to Daman. I went there by bike. The snake like road was fun to ride with less
traffic. I went to the top of hill. There was a communication tower. I went
there and asked the technician if i can climb up to have a view. They allowed
us and the view was like OMG. We stayed at Local Lodge and service was
satisfactory. I recommend you to visit Daman if you are planning to visit
somewhere
