Many tourists visit Sankhar each year for rafting.[3] Tourists can go for trekking as Sankhar is surrounded by hills on all sides.

For visiting tourists in Sankhar the most known and most famous places which are known as Keladighat and Ramghat. Keladighat is the historical place by the point of view for tourism. In Keladighat, there is a temple and different parks to visit. In temple Radha Krishna is worshiped in 24 hours nonstop.

But, nowadays it is developing to a highly populated area. Mohami, a village in Sankhar, is famous for its historical place because it had a palace for royal family at the period of kingship in Nepal.
