Know About Nepal


Know About Nepal

Nepal, officially the Federal Democratic Republic of Nepal is one of the richest countries in the world in terms of natural beauty due to its unique geographical position and latitudinal variation. The elevation of the country ranges from 60m above sea level to the highest point on earth, Mt. Everest at 8,848m, all within a distance of 150 km with climatic conditions ranging from subtropical to arctic. This wild variation fosters an incredible variety of ecosystems, the greatest mountain range on earth, thick tropical jungles teeming with a wealth of wildlife, thundering rivers, forested hill, and frozen valleys.

Within this spectacular geography are some of the richest cultures of Himalayan heritage. Nepal, home of Mt. Everest is also home to some 28.58 million people belonging to 125 ethnic groups who speak over 123 different languages, most living rural lives in their own little worlds, along the length of the Himalayas. The best way to explore the exotic Himalayan nature and culture of Nepal is by walking through these villages and meeting the charming people.

We invite you to: Meet the lovely people of rural Nepal, share a meal with them, stay at their homes as family guests, taste their local drink, and see them carry on with life graciously. In addition to the heartwarming hospitality, you will also witness some of the most spectacular views of the mountain landscapes or heritage sites along the way. Visit rural Nepal to know the real Nepal.

Visit these rural parts of Nepal, not only takes you through pristine landscapes and colorful mountain cultures, but it also gives you a chance to educate and empower the local community and be a part of their development process. Money spent in these areas contributes directly to the local livelihood. In the 1950s, Nepal opened its doors to tourists and has received millions of visitors since then. However, much of Nepal is still the Shangri-la that travelers long to experience. Therefore, with the aim of showcasing new areas and promoting and developing indigenous people and culture, a new approach to tourism, based on sustainable development has been initiated by Nepal. Community-based tourism is also being initiated in other parts of South Asia as a tool for sustainable development.

We are pleased to extend our warm hospitality and hope your stay in Nepal is a memorable one. If you have any queries or comments, please feel free to contact us at the Nepal Tourism Board. We recommend that tourists avail services from registered agencies only.
