Travel to Nepal From India – An Enchanting Experience

The Democratic Republic of Nepal – a preface

Nepal, officially known as the Democratic Republic of Nepal, is a landlocked country located in South Asia. It shares its border with China in the North, and is surrounded by India on all the other sides. Nepal is sometimes referred to the Ceiling of the World, as the mountainous north of the country comprises 8 of the 10 tallest mountains in the world. The Mount Everest, the highest peak in the world standing tall at 29,029 feet above sea level, is located on the border between Nepal and China. Nepal’s population consists of more than 80% Hindus, followed by practitioners of Buddhism. Kathmandu, which is the largest city in Nepal, is also the capital of the country. Most tourists travelling to Nepal descend at Kathmandu and start their journey to other parts of the country.

Emerging as a tourist destination

Nepal has not historically been a hotspot tourist destination, owing to limited infrastructure, poor governance, and political instability. However, with the advent of tourism projects, greater development and mountaineering activities, Nepal is opening itself to the world of tourists. Nepal benefits from its diverse landscapes and panoramic vistas.

Mountaineering and trekking in Nepal are extremely popular activities, and the country is now seeing hordes of professional mountaineers flocking to enjoy its Himalayan treasures. Tours to Nepal are primarily trek based, or at least are centered on the Himalayas.

Religion and culture are other highlights of Nepal. With Hinduism and Buddhism being the most deeply entrenched religions in Nepal, the country is dotted with artistic temples, houses of worships of intricate design and peaceful Buddhist monasteries. Red cloak covered monks will pass you by peacefully, and you will feel the aura of this religion around you.

Tailor made travel in Nepal

While most itineraries in Nepal include conventional or traditional circuits and trek routes, these slightly off beat programs will allow a traveler to choose his or own path. That way, a tourist can get to experience the authenticity and locale of Nepal in his or her own way. Tours to Nepal should focus on its scenic Himalayan beauty, its culture and its other landscapes such as the lush valleys. Trekking in Nepal can be an unforgettable and once-in-a-lifetime experience, and such an experience should be lived on your own terms! So it is strongly suggested that when a trip to Nepal is being planned, it should be customised.
