Wonders
of Nepal Tour
Nepal has been
the dreamland of the tourists for a long time.
Nepal invites, welcomes, charms and bewilders
the visitors. Those who have already visited
Nepal cherish the desire for a second visit
and those who have heard or read about the kingdom
make a plan to visit the country. The pattern
of religion gives the country a unique status
in the world. Almost all the important religious
sects of the world are found in Nepal, however,
the majority of the population believes in Hinduism
and the conglomeration of the two religions,
Hinduism and Buddhism serve as an unique example
of tolerance and brotherhood. Many festivals
of religious significance are celebrated commonly
with equal enthusiasm by both the sects and
there is the co-existence of all the other religious.
