To explore Nepal is to walk into history. Nestled in this 14th century land of natural beauty and timeless mystery, Hindu and Buddhist temples freckle the countryside, boasting their exquisite architecture and intricate carvings. Meanwhile the dramatic landscape and natural wonders beckon adventurers to trek alongside colossal mountains, serene lakes and rushing rivers.
Until 1962, this enchanting country, known for its ancient temples, towering mountains, lush, fertile landscape and fascinating trekking, was closed to tourists. Now, the adventurous tourist can explore the narrow, winding streets of Kathmandu, take a rafting trip down the breathtaking Trishuli River, trek along the Annapurna Mountain Range and board an elephant to seek out Bengal Tigers and other rare and exotic animals in the Royal Chitwan Park.
