Asia Travelers    
 

Nepal can be visited easily from the neighbouring giant India. The people of Nepal are quite relaxed, so the country offers a nice break from the crowded Indian plains. It's the kind of country that lingers in your dreams long after you leave it. This is why so many travellers are drawn back to Nepal, armed the second time round with a greater appreciation of its natural and cultural complexity, a stout pair of walking boots and a desire for sculpted calf muscles. The capital city of Kathmandu is an inspiring place. It is packed with temples and has a very friendly atmosphere. From Kathmandu, is is only a short trip to the nearby Patan with its impressive Durbar square where the past can be revived. Bhaktapur is even older and offers some interesting insights into the famous Newari architecture. Pashupatinath, the holiest city of Nepal, and Bodnath, with the largest Stupa of Nepal and home to many members of the Tibetan community, are an absolute must.

If you want to have some astonishing views of the mountain ranges, set off for Nagarkot or leave the Kathmandu Valley for Pokhara. Pokhara has one of the most stunning settings in the world. Mountains of 8 kilometers and up are all around it. You can also go to the Everest Region where you can see Everest and other stunning views of 'the roof of the world'. Royal chitwan national park offers some unexpected wildlife for a mountain country: crocodiles & rhino's e.g. It is possible to visit Tibet from Nepal, but you should try and get a permit before setting off.
