In the southern part of giant continent Asia
there lies rectangular tiny kingdom squeezed between two huge
populated countries China on the north and India on the south,
is the country called Nepal-the world of its own.
The land of contrast is ostensibly the exact way to define the
topography of Nepal for you will find maximum world’s topmost
highest peaks soaring high up above the clouds striving for
God’s a abode. Mt. Everest, Kanchenjunga, Daulagiri, and
Annapurna and many more are there to the mountain-lovers and
adventurers.
No wonder after viewing the panoramic views of everlasting
snow-covered mountain ranges if you find yourself not far below
(within a day’s distance) busy taking close-up photos of Royal
Bengal Tigress prowling in the dense tropical forest along with
one-horn Rhinos, Gharials, Crocodiles, and many endangered
vertebrate mammals and reptiles amidst the friendly people of
natives that is consist of colorful 36 ethnic groups.
Thus it is not unusual to bask round the snowy peaks in the
early morning and take warm shower under tropical sun with
distance cover by your own on-foot journey within a day. Also
the land is blessed with everlasting peace and tranquility. So
for the reason Lord Buddha was born here. According to Hindu
relic (Ramayana) Sita (wife of King Ram) was also born in this
particular place. These ancient and medieval relics are still
well preserved and full of lives. When you witness, every wall
speaks itself. That is why many visitors can’t help themselves
gasping, and trying hard to retake a gulf of air to gulp down as
the breathtaking views almost took their breath. |

Sahara Air. Getting here is also possible from Islamabad,
Pakistan and Dhaka of Bangladesh. This is the access point from
