Places To See In Nepal |
Nepal is known as a land where you can revitalize your
mind, body and soul amidst, scenery that is simply knock
out. I can arrange some of the most interesting
site-seeing trips in the country where I have been
frequently. For those who cannot withstand the
rigorousness of mountain climbing here are mountain
flights, which fly around Mt. Everest and other summits
providing a close- up of the top of the world. On a
clear day, the hill resorts of Nagarkot (32 km east of
Kathmandu), Dhulikhel (34km) and Daman (80 km southwest
of Kathmandu) offer magnificent views of the entire
Himalayan range. For the less adventurous, Pokhara, the
lake city of Nepal provides ample opportunities of
fishing, swimming, canoeing and boating along with
majestic panoramic views in its background or you can
visit at Lumbini birthplace of Lord Buddha which is the
pilgrimage destination of the world's millions people
and is listed as a world heritage site by UNESCO.
Ag-Old traditional hospitality is an added bonus, of
course. Kathmandu valley is the Shangri-La city of Nepal
is a novelty destination for many. The city is
surrounded by hills and is the cradle of Nepalese
civilization and culture. The Kathmandu valley boasts of
seven worlds cultural Heritage sites all with in a
radius of 20kms. The city is famous for its
Archeological and historical sites. Once a separate
kingdom in itself, it contains four major fabled cities,
Kathmandu, Patan and Bhaktapur.
Other interesting sites such as Namo Buddha, an amazing
legend related to the Buddha which is good place for
medatation, Budanilkantha (about 8 km north of kathmandu)
is remarkable colossable status of Lord Vishnu,
reclining on bed of snakes, Dachhin Kali a tantrc
goodness and famous Chovar Gorge are very interesting
place for sight-seeing around Kathmandu valley.

Nepal trekking /
travel related business was booming until 1999. After that, the
incessant conflict scared off tourists from visiting
Nepal and we are feeling the pinch of the fall in
tourist arrivals. There was a time when we recorded such
a huge flow of tourists that we used to turn back some.
