Nepal is a country rich in culture, world heritage sites, and the Himalayas. It is the world’s 93rd largest country, with an area of 147,181 Square kilometers. It is bordered to the North by Tibet and China and to the South/ East/West by India.
The country is home to approximately 29.3 million people from religious backgrounds like Hindu, Buddhist, Muslim, Kirant Mundhum, and Christianity. Nepali is the national language of Nepal, and the script is in Devanagari. The total population of Nepal consists of approximately 100 ethnic groups that speak approximately 105 languages.
Nepal is popularly known as the home of the highest peak on Earth, Mount Everest, or ‘Sagarmatha’ (Mother of the World in Nepali). This is not true! Most people do not realize that the North of Nepal is home to eight of the highest snow-crown mountains in the world.
Nepal Government has officially declared 326 peaks perfect for climbing, while some fall under unsafe mountaineering peaks. In total, 1310 peaks in Nepal rise between 6000 and 8848.86 meters high!
Apart from flaunting the beautiful Himalayas, Nepal is also famous for being the birthplace of Buddha. Lumbini, the exact birthplace of Buddha, lies in the Tarai region of Nepal. Visitors from all around the world come here to witness this peaceful and holy pilgrim site. Nepal is also home to many other pilgrim destinations where devotees from across the globe come to pay their homage.
Kathmandu is the capital of Nepal and the largest metropolitan city in the country. The Kathmandu valley is home to an approximately 9 million population in its three districts – Kathmandu, Lalitpur, and Bhaktapur.
The city is surrounded by four major hills: Shivapuri, Pulchowki, Nagarjuna, and Chandragiri. It is approximately 1350m above sea level.
The city’s history dates back over 2000 years and includes several UNESCO-recognized World Heritage sites. Tourists worldwide flock to witness the ancient culture, monuments, and activities Nepal is well-known for, such as trekking and mountaineering. Pokhara, Biratnagar, and Nepalgunj are other major cities in Nepal that attract tourists and promote tourism. Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu is the gateway to Nepal Tourism.
