Flower Nepal is such a small country that you'd probably miss it if you weren't looking for it on a map. Sharing borders with India, it is a Hindu kingdom with an eclectic mix of race, art and religion. A very poor country yet very versatile in what it has to offer the traveler, Nepal is definitely a destination to look out for. Well developed tourist facilities, excellent for adventure tourism and wildlife and national parks par excellence make this small hilly nation quite ideal for honeymooners and intrepid travelers alike.

The Gorkhas of this region are famous for their sheer grit, their fighting abilities, and their loyalty and in fact the Indian Army even has a Gorkha Regiment.

How could talk of Nepal be complete without mention of the Sherpas? Sherpa Tenzing Norgay the most famous among them. Hardy, stocky and determined, they are a people who seem to have been born to face the travails of living in unfriendly conditions. Without them the various mountaineering expeditions would definitely be handicapped.

So be it casinos, national parks, shopping, river rafting or taking an elephant safari, make Nepal your destination this millennium.
