| Nepal Travel Guide for backpackers |
| Even though there is some tension in this beautiful land, and the country is starting to resemble that of a battlefield, the people and their hope are something you have to see for yourself. The breathtaking country cradled in the vast arms of the Himalayas, with the positive energy of the people beat as the heart of Nepal. |
 |
Bhaktapur - This is a city stuck in time, with a medieval feel to it and architecture dating back to the 17th century, you will defiantly be transported to another place and time.
Patan - A quiet unassuming city huddled in the valley, shrouded with temples and sacred tortoises, most certainly the place to reconnect with your soul.
Pokhara - Leisurely days, spent surrounded by lakes, waterfalls and of course some of the best restaurants in the world.
The Terai - Get out of the city into the wilderness, tigers, elephants, rhino’s and deer protected by law and admired by humans, Game walks are the thing to do here, but be careful of leeches as they are in full force during the monsoon months.
Dakshinkal - One of the most religious places, with sacrifices takeing place every Tues and sat in the temple of Dakshinkali, to truly understand a peoples way, you must understand their cultures and believes and this is the perfect place to be part of their religious rituals. |
 DAILY BUDGET in NEPAL - Well this is one of the cheapest locations in the world and if you are prepared to give up first class accommodation and top of the range meals then living on about US$40 a day is done with comfort, your lodgings will cost betweenUS$4-11 and food about US$3-4, so now there is no excuse pack that rucksack and get going on an adventure you will be raving about for years to come. |
| Summer is with out a doubt the best time to visit, the air is clear and the weather warm, the countryside comes alive after the monsoon but if you do not mind a bit of dryness and hot days then February-April will make a good time to go. If you plan your trip around December and January then make sure you take warm clothing as you can expect snow. May and early June are not good times as everything is hot and dusty and very dry. No matter what time of the year you do go there will be some kind or another festival going on. Some of them honouring animals while others sacrifice them. |
