beauty. It has a unique cult
heritage, glorious history, and
friendly smiling people who
regard guest as deities. Nepal
is well suited to be a popular
tourist destination. Situated

land soars from the jungles of
the Terai (90m/ 295ft) to the
crowning glory of the Himalayas,
the summit of Mt. Everest
(8848m/ 29,028ft). The unusual
bounty of flora and fauna
reflect its variation in
climates. Equally diverse are
the people of Nepal; deeply
religious with strong cultural
traditions, reflected in their
art, architecture, and a
diversity of language. All this
combined, it offers you a
totally different experience, to
make your holiday a success.
