Nepal is a nation of spectacular scenery and landscapes, which includes eight of the world’s ten highest mountains. The jewel in the crown, of course, is Mount Everest, the highest place on Earth at a dizzying height of 29,029ft.
The Himalayan vista is only just of the many attractions. Ironically, the acronym Never Ending Peace And Love sums up Nepal brilliantly as its people are as friendly and welcoming as any in the whole world.
Nestled between India and Tibet, a multitude of ethnic groups are scattered across the Kingdom of Nepal. The geographical diversity is depicted in the array of local customs and traditions enacted by the indigenous people.
In the southern Tarai lowlands lie the hot Indian plains, while after passing through the Kathmandu Valley, the terrain rises to the heights of the Himalayas towards the plateau known as the “roof of the world”.
Travellers will find traditional life aplenty spread across a variety of altitudes. Many communities have escaped Western commercialisation and lie untouched by modernity. Life in many of the hilltop and mountain villages is centred on the spiritual intertwining of Hindu and Buddhist religious rituals.
The fusion of different societies is brought together in the capital of Kathmandu to create an exotic collection of sights and smells, where designer shops are dotted between traditional street sellers. And the urban landscape is also filled with beautiful Buddhist temples, holy Sadhus of the Hindu faith and medieval palace squares.
