NEPAL

From morning prayers to the universal deities, walking Sadhus on village trails and city streets, to Buddhists spinning prayer wheels while sitting in front of their stores. You will have many opportunities to witness this aspect of life.

In Nepal, ethnic cultural groups are diverse and many of them have their own languages and customs. The country’s capital Kathmandu, where you will end your Himalayan tour, is Nepal’s largest city. The tightly packed historical centre, with its squares and temples, continues to preserve a world light-years away from shantytowns, expensive hotels, restaurants and shops on the city’s outskirts. Kathmandu’s core is Durbar Square, with the Vishnumati River to the west and Ratna Park to the east, The Bagmati River forms the southern boundary, whilst Thamel, the popular tourist hangout sprawls to the north. This would have to be one of the most exciting cities to visit in the world today.
