15 things not to miss in nepal

When you are planning a trip to Nepal, you might be wondering about what are the things that you can possibly do. Well………. .Congratulations!!! You are reading a perfect article. I will not only guide you about the things to do but tell you about the stuffs that you won’t regret doing again.

Nepal is extensively known for its landscapes, mountains and lakes. Having said that, most of the tourists we welcome, are either trekkers or mountaineers. You can look at the features offered by the treks and find the best trek that suits you. You have wide number of trekking options.  Everest base camp trek  ,Annapurna circuit trek, Manaslu circuit trek , Ghorepani Poon Hill trekking, Langtang valley trek , Upper Mustang trek, Kanchenjunga base champ ,Annapurna base champ trek , Gokyo Ri trek , Upper Dolpo.

It is fun when you hold a bucket of cheese popcorn and watch one of the marvel movie, but have you ever thought of holding a cup of sweet and tasteful curd and watching old palaces and historical masterpieces. You can do it in Bhaktapur. The very famous Bhaktapur durbar square has a fifty five window palace and temples with their mind blowing structure .Near to the durbar area is a large pond, Siddhapokhari. It is a very famous dating spot among couples. You can go there with your loved one.

Eating a bowl full of spicy and gelatinous laphing along with the soft and surreal music created out of a singing bowl and watching at the very massive, spherical Mandala-Boudhanath. You should definitely not   miss this chance.

You are an animal lover and wildlife enthusiast .You are tired of bathing in a tub with the same old taste of wine and roses all over your body  then you should definitely have an experience of bathing with an elephant .And where will you get this experience………??? Well the answer is when you go to Chitwan national .Don’t tell me you are not going there, you must go.

You call yourself a foodie and do not try on momos…..?? Not fair!!!  You will find momos in every corner of Kathmandu and in every food menu of hotels .These are similar to Tibetan dumplings but in smaller size, a different taste and with different flavor. You name it and it is there on your table.

When you go to a country, you not only want to enjoy the natural beauty and landscapes of that place but also want to know about their tradition and culture. One of the greatest festival Of Hindu religion, widely celebrated in Nepal is Dashain. It usually is celebrated during the month of September and October. People go to temples and worship different god and goddess.it is basically the celebration of truth and honesty’s victory over evil and cruelty. It has an old mythological story also. You must enjoy the festival when you are in Nepal.

As I have already mentioned about the Himalayas, One with the intention of climbing the mountain will know the importance of Himalayas in Nepal. There is also a reform to skydive above Mt Everest. I wonder what can be more adventurous and thrilling than that.

Nepal being the second richest country in water resources ,has countless numbers of rivers .The water flow in the rivers are swift and fast ,that is why we do not have any source of water transportation but the nature of river is utilized for rafting. Trishuli River is widely popular for rafting. If you ever plan to do rafting, make sure you do it in a best way possible.

Nepal not only known for having the most dangerous airport in the world, but its road transportation is equally dangerous in the rural areas. When you are in plain land terai, ask to sit on the roof of a bus. A swift blow of air touches your skin and you get to see fields full of yellow mustard flower and the whole scenario is alluring. I know it is dangerous to travel that way that is why I am asking you to do it in plain land terai.

Nepal is not only rich in natural beauty but history also.it is one of the oldest county in ASIA. And the land where Yoga was originated. Lots of foreigner come here with the purpose of knowing more about yoga and meditation. With the increasing competition in every field, depression and anxiety has equally appeared in the lives of people. You can enjoy your vacation by relaxing your mind and soul.

Tea holds a great importance in the lives of Nepali people. It is the first thing that touches their tongue in the morning .If you are a guest to them,  the first thing  you get asked about is whether  you want to take a sip of tea or not. The best place to have tea is ILLAM.

If you are a stoner, then Shivaratri can be your favorite festival celebrated here in Nepal. It is the festival when lord Shiva is worshipped. Sounds funny but he also used to be high on weed. Weed is totally illegal in Nepal but on this day, people consume weed as a holy food. However, this practice is slowly declining as the government is strictly working on prohibiting weed consumption. On this day, Pashupatinath (also the name of lord Shiva) temple is very crowded.

Paragliding on the top of a lake which is 4, 43 kilometer square in area can be a great and fun experience .you must have this experience when you go to Pokhara.

The land where actually Nepal was planned to be united. Yes… you are hearing it right. Nepal was once divided into several small states, King Prithvi Narayan Shah was the one who united it and formed Nepal .He was the king of Gorkha.

Gautam Buddha, the light of Asia was born in Nepal. And more precisely, He was born in Lumbini .Maya Devi temple situated in Lumbini is the center of attraction for lots of tourist in the world. You can’t really miss something which is the main identity of that country. Can you ………????
