Sandwiched between China in the north and India in the south, Nepal is a country of high Himalayan Mountains, artistic monuments, exotic wildlife and diverse culture. Lord Buddha was born over 2,500 years ago in this land of Mount Everest. Recorded history of Nepal begins with the Lichhavis who came to power in 400 AD. With them the nation began to prosper in art, culture, painting, architecture and sculptures. The Mailas who succeeded them gave a new turn to this prosperity by transforming, the small Kingdoms of Kathmandu, Patan and Bhaktapur into "Open air museum of Art and Architecture". Nepal is blessed with an incredible diversity of natural beauty and a consequent opulence of cultural varieties.

Nepal is the "Land of Paradise" for tourists, treks and mountaineering expeditions. The natural landscape of Nepal Mountains, rivers, glacial lakes, forests and wild animals are major resources for its tourism industry. The famous Himalayan range, favourable climate and the hospitality of the Nepalese people and their culture are also major attractions.
