 Nepal
is a small but surprising destination at the foot of the Himalayas.
It's a real gem for culture buffs and action seekers alike.
With Nepal Travel Plan, you'll travel independently to the
magnificent temples of the Kathmandu Valley, take an elephant-back
safari to spot rhinos in Chitwan National Park and relax on
the peaceful shores of Lake Pokhara. Of course, Nepal is famous
for trekking, and we offer a variety of treks that combine
action with a taste of Nepalese culture.
With India on it's South and China in the
North; Nepal is a developing country with rich in culture.
In the northern region of high Himalayas,
the Tibetan speaking, the Sherpas, the Dolpas, the Lopas,
the Baragaonlis, the Manangis live in different settlements
scattered along the country. The Sherpas are mainly confined
in the east in the Solu and Khumbu region. The Baragaonlis
and the Lopas live in the semi- deserted area of the upper
and lower Mustang in the part of the Tibetan plateau in the
rain shadow area; the Managis in the Manang district and the
adjacent areas; and the Dolpas in the highest settlements
on the earth in the Dolpa district of Nepal ( in the west)
at an altitude of above 4000 m.
In the middle hills and valleys, there coexists
numerous ethnic groups. Among them are the Magars, Gurungs,
Tamangs, Sunuwars, Newars, Thakalis, Chepangs and majority
of Brahmans and Chhetris. The Brahmans and Chhetris have long
dominance in all pervading social, religious and political
realms. There are also some occupational castes e.g. the Damai
( tailor), Sarki ( Cobbler), Kami (Blacksmith) and Sunar (Goldsmiths).
Though, there exists numerous dialects, the language of unification
is the national language, Nepali, an Indo- Aryan language.Throughout
your trip, you'll stay in cosy hotels packed with local character,
quirky jungle lodges, trekking teahouses and even in homestays.
We'll book all of your local independent Nepal travel and

you. This gives you the chance to travel through Nepal your
own way, and at your own pace
