"The biggest natural museum in the world"
Nepal is one of the richest countries in the world in terms of bio-diversity due to its unique geographical position and latitudinal variation. The elevation of the country ranges from 70m above sea level to the highest point on earth, Mt. Everest at 8848 m, all within a distance of just 150 km with climatic conditions ranging from sub-tropical to arctic. This wild variation fosters an incredible variety of ecosystems, the greatest mountain range on earth, thick tropical jungles teeming with a wealth of wildlife, thundering rivers, forested hills and frozen valleys.
Within this spectacular geography is also one of the richest cultural landscapes anywhere. The country is a potpourri of ethnic groups and sub-groups who speak over 70 languages and dialects. Nepal offers an astonishing diversity of sightseeing attractions and adventure opportunities found nowhere else on earth. And you can join in the numerous annual festivals that are celebrated throughout the year in traditional style highlighting enduring customs and beliefs.
Nepal is considered one of the best adventure destinations in the world. Nepal’s geography packs an extremely varied landscape into a small area. The immense contrasts in altitude and climates found here support a spectacular mix of lifestyle, vegetation and wildlife. Nepal is probably the only country in the world where you can climb the biggest mountains, trek in the scenic countryside with the icy pinnacles always in the background as well as enjoy jungle safari in forests, considered to be the densest in the entire South Asian region.
Hectic schedules, deadlines to meet and jet setting around the world certainly deserve a break. How about a trip to paradise?
Imagine a place where you could gaze at the wonders of the world’s highest mountain range whose beauty is a feast to behold, trek to the lower slopes where a whiff of fresh air and scent of exotic flowers greet you at every step, raft down a snow fed river, fly across the country by helicopter for candle-lit dinner in the mountains under the clear blue sky with Mt. Everest for company, and enjoy the sunrise as it splashes hues of red on blushing mountain ranges. You think your imagination is working over time? Well, think again. Paradise is closer than you think.
Welcome to Nepal – the most happening incentive travel destination in the world – a heady mixture of unique culture proudly preserved, mind boggling adventure and remarkable natural beauty. A land where you can revitalize your mind, body and soul amidst scenery that is simply knocks you out. Age-old traditional hospitality is an added bonus, of course.
