About Nepal

May 6th

Nepal is one of a chain of small Shangri-La countries which stretches from west to east along the Himalayan range, starting with Kashmir, crossing a narrow strip of upper India, through Nepal and on to Sikkim, Bhutan and Assam in the east.

Nepal, despite being a small country has a lot to offer to the visitors -high himalayas to the north, thundering rivers cutting deep gorges into the Mahabharata range, UNESCO recognized world heritage sites, diverse culture and traditions, valleys and lowland in the southern belt with wealth of flora and fauna. Nepal is the land of Mount Everest, the highest mountain in the world.
