General Information
Known as the Land
of Everest and being “The only Hindu Kingdom in the world”,
the kingdom of Nepal is a land of sublime scenery, one of the
world’s best and Archeologically very important temples, and
some of the best walking trails on the Earth. Although the GDP
of “The Land of Buddha” is very low, but it is rich in
scenic splendour and cultural treasures.
The kingdom has long exerted a pull on the Western imagination
and it's a difficult place to dislodge from your memory once you
visit Nepal and return.
This is why so many travelers are forced to visit Nepal again
and again with a greater appreciation of its natural and
cultural complexity, a stout pair of walking boots and a desire
for improved leg-definition.
