Some of the content here seems to talk about the district of the same name, which has its own article. I'll leave the excised content here so that it can be moved there.
The district contains ancient forts including [[Okhaldhunga Gadhi]], [[Taluwagadhi]], [[Chisankhukot]], [[Bhaluithumkagadhi]], and [[Chyanmakotgadhi]] that were important in the history of Nepal. <ref>{{Cite web|title=Nepal Traveller|url=https://nepaltraveller.com/|access-date=2020-06-30|website=https://nepaltraveller.com|language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book|last=Dhital|first=Megh Raj|url=https://books.google.ca/books?id=2OybBgAAQBAJ&pg=PA201&lpg=PA201&dq=Okhaldhunga+Gadhi&source=bl&ots=7rspMKPmKs&sig=ACfU3U2NT2nNwk7a2Ewg2ZksB23_RJL6Kg&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjm_4LFoqrqAhUKvZ4KHaezD18Q6AEwBXoECAoQAQ#v=onepage&q=Okhaldhunga%20Gadhi&f=false|title=Geology of the Nepal Himalaya: Regional Perspective of the Classic Collided Orogen|date=2015-02-11|publisher=Springer|isbn=978-3-319-02496-7|language=en}}</ref>
The district provides views of snow-capped mountains [[Sagaramatha]], [[Kanchenjanga]], [[Gaurishankar]], [[Tholedemba]], [[Taklung]], Rawadelu and many others. It also possesses many sparkling springs like Pokali, Lipu, Patle, Sepli, Dhikure and more, which descend along the hills from heights of around 300 metres. The district is known as a good source of slate, especially on cliffs like Khiji [[Khijee]], Ragani and Dandapakha. The proper development of the slate industry, with procurement, processing and transporting to lucrative markets could be a boon not just for Okhaldhunga but the entire nation. Other industries that are in development include those for copper and iron ore mining as the district is said to be rich in these metals. In the agricultural sector the district is well known for various cash crops such as tea, coffee, and cardamom. The climate is most suitable for these crops as well as for many different citrus fruits.
Some of the content seems out of place and may be better suited for projects like WikiVoyage:

Gadhi – Historical corners “gadhi” are found to be constant. Chasankhu gadhi of Diyale and Kotkateni gadhi of Thulachhap are areas that re not well-maintained and deteriorating.
Cave – Ancestral peoples used to live in the cave. One of the most popular cave of Pokhara “Mahendra gufa” has demonstrated of attraction of tourist towards cave and wodhar. Chameru Gufa of Okhaldunga Bilandu has proved to be playground “kridasthal” of chameru. The darkness inside the chameru gufa makes it difficult for people to go inside.
If proper arrangements could be made, travel would be convenient for the people in the district, and it would make it possible to collect the money as well. Religion- Okhaldhunga has a lot of religious conviction centers. After Kathmandu the most faithful conviction center and ????? ?????? should be in Okhaldhunga district.{{clarify-inline|date=October 2018}}
