"Top of the world" & Nepal

traveladviser · (#1 (**permalink**))

Nepal represents a blend of ancient history, vibrant cultures and scenic grandeur. Nepal's main geographical features include snow-capped peaks, lower mountains, mid hills and fertile plains of tropical jungles. Nearly one-third of the total length of the Himalayas and 8 of the world's 14 highest peaks lie in Nepal. The land locked country covers an area 147,181 sq. kilometers ranging from 70 meters to the highest point at 8848 meters above sea level. Nepal's popularity as a tourist destination has increased vastly over the years. While Trekking and Mountaineering in Nepal have long been popular, an entire range of other activities are also being carried out. For more information visit us at: clubmountain.com

Yes, good area for Trekking and Mountaineering. The Mountain Region, situated in the Great Himalayan Range, makes the northern part of Nepal. It contains the regions of highest altitude in the world...

Beside Mountains,

Nepal is also rich in bio diversity, white water and jungle safari. There are 9 world heritage sites. 7 in Kathmandu valley, with in the radius of 20 km.

Pre-Buddhist pagan practices are still carried on. Following animism, every giant geographical structures are revered, especially mountains.

Blood sacrifices are must in Tantric rites.
It's a country of more festivals than the days in the calender.
