Tourist Attractions in Nepal

The democratic republic of Nepal is a landlocked kingdom in the Himalayan region between India, Tibet and China. Also known as the only Hindu Kingdom in the world, Nepal is a beautiful mix of cultures and traditions with vast spaces of beautiful natural wilderness and some very important religious architecture. Legends say the Hindi sage called Ne resided in and protected (pala in Sanksrit) the small village called Kathmandu in ancient times. Thus Ne and Pala formed the modern word – the place protected by Ne. Other accounts say that Nepal comes from the word Nepa, referring to the Newar Kingdom (people of Kathmandu Valley). The monarch was recently abolished in Kathmandu and now it stands strong as a republic.

A Buddhist deity named Manjushri liked the place and wanted habitation there. The Buddhist god then bifurcated the hill to the south and allowed the water to flow out.
