Introduction
Welcome
to Nepal, a country that provides an unforgettable
experience to tourists with even the most diverse interests.
We believe that Nepal is one of the most beautiful
places on earth. Nepal possesses the diverse variety
of tourism attractions found nowhere in the world.
Nepal is a natural and cultural heritage, a living
museum and abode of gods. From the majestic heights
of the Himalayas to the tropical jungle homelands of
the tiger and rhinoceros, Nepal is a land of breathtaking
diversity. And in the shadow of the tallest peaks,
across the ridges and valleys of the central hills
and through the hot Gangetic plains on the Indian border,
the people of this mysterious kingdom form a rich and
intriguing ethnic tapestry. Nepal is a land of superlatives,
myths and legends.
It is home not only to the world's highest mountain,
Everest, but to no less than eight of the fourteen
summits that rise above 8000 meters. These highlands
also encompass some of nature's remarkable sights:
the world's deepest gorge, as the Kali Gandaki River
slices between Dhaulagiri and the Annapurna massif,
unique habitats for elusive animals such as the snow
leopard and Himalayan musk deer, and the icy tranquility
of lakes such as Ra Ra and Gokyo held in the lap of
gods.
Yet beyond its natural beauty Nepal is also the cradle
of ancient civilizations that have produced sophisticated
urban cultures and traditions of art and architecture.
People by more than a dozen major ethnic groups, each
maintaining their age-old customs and languages, this
is an enigmatic land that revels in a seemingly bewildering
diversity but still retains a harmonious national character.
Foremost in this character is the tradition of hospitality
that touches the heart of every visitor. And accompanying
this is a ubiquitous cheerfulness and enjoyment of
festivities: whenever you visit this land of festivals
you are likely to be caught up in one of the celebrations
that throng the Nepalese calendar.
There is something for everyone from around the globe….
Welcome to Nepal!!!!
