About Nepal
Nepal rises from the plains to the highest mountains on earth within a short distance. Indian nationals can travel without a visa, which makes it among the easiest international trips from South India.
A classic route links Kathmandu's temples with Pokhara's lakes and mountain views.
Kathmandu Valley
Pashupatinath is a revered Shiva temple on the Bagmati, visited by many Indian pilgrims. Boudhanath's great white stupa and hilltop Swayambhunath show the Buddhist side of the valley. Bhaktapur and Patan preserve old royal squares.

Pokhara and the Annapurnas
Phewa Lake reflects the mountains on clear mornings. Sarangkot is the classic sunrise point, and Pokhara is also a centre for paragliding and gentle hill walks.

Lumbini, Chitwan and Muktinath
Lumbini is the birthplace of the Buddha. Chitwan National Park offers jungle safaris and one-horned rhinos, and Muktinath is an important high-altitude pilgrimage for Hindus and Buddhists alike.
