About Nepal

Nepal is located in South Asia, bordered by India to the south and China to the north. Nepal, along with China, is home to Mount Everest, the world's highest peak.
Nepal is home to diverse ethnic groups, including Rajputana, Gurkhas, Bhutias, and Newars. Although Nepali is the official language, the country boasts 123 different languages. While English proficiency varies, tourists can generally communicate with locals in English.
Various religions are practiced in Nepal, including Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, Kiratism, Christianity, Prakriti, Bon, Jainism, Baháʼí Faith, and Sikhism. Hindus make up about 80% of the Nepalese population, with Buddhists and Muslims forming the remainder. The capital city, Kathmandu, is also the most developed in Nepal. Other cities include Bhaktapur, a historic city, Boudhanath, considered sacred by Buddhists, Janakpur with its 500-year-old Janaki Temple as a religious center, and Patan, known for the Patan Durbar Square, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Nepal experiences four distinct seasons and a monsoon climate. The country sees heavy monsoon rains from June to September. From October to December, the weather is clean and cool, and from April to June, it's dry and hot. Visitors should plan their trips according to the climate conditions.
Nepal, a low-income country, has around 75% of its population in subsistence farming. The rest work in services and industry, primarily linked to agriculture. The official currency is the Nepalese Rupee.
Nepali cuisine features spicy dishes, with 'daal bhat tarkari' known as the national dish. This meal consists of boiled rice, goat or chicken meat cooked with spices, and a mix of boiled vegetables like squash, carrots, and potatoes, served with yogurt and pickles. Beef is prohibited in Nepal due to the sacredness of cows. Other preferred foods include pastries, fried dough, Tibetan bread, and noodles.
