Nepal

The serenity and grandeur of Nepal attracts nearly half a million visitors every year. This small, ancient, land-locked country is nestled between the two giants, India and China, and is home to more than 28 million people, more than 110 ethnic groups, 120 spoken languages, and many religions.

From the north is Nepal’s sky high border with Tibet, to the south, where the jungles of the Terai buzz just above sea level, Nepal offers the visitors varied and unique environments to explore. Nepal is the only country to have 7 (UNESCO) World Heritage Sites, situated within a 20 kilometer radius! After you have experienced ancient Kathmandu, you can take a day trip around the Kathmandu Valley, spend a weekend in the jungle of Chitwan National Park (also a World Heritage Site), or trek deep into the Himalayas. Trekking options include: Everest Base Camp, Annapurna Sanctuary, Rara Lake (in Western Nepal’s “Wild West”), or the seldom-visited Nymba Valley, to name just a few. And because of Nepal’s diverse terrain and climate; from the world’s deepest gorge (Kali-Gandaki) to the highest point on earth (Mt. Everest), one can explore this magnificent country all year round.
