| Itinerary
A land of incredible diversity and seeming contradictions. A
small, land-locked realm that encompasses eight of the world's ten highest
peaks and plunges to the flaming heat of the Gangetic plains, inhabited by a
remarkable variety of peoples and cultures. For Nepal is a natural border, a
transitional area. The Himalaya, 'Abode of Snow', marks the northern bounds of
South Asia and the Indian subcontinent while Nepal's territory edges beyond
this mighty range to reach into the Tibetan plateau and Central Asia.. .
Every trip to Nepal begins in the capital of Kathmandu. Endorsed
by the UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, the Kathmandu Valley, is in actuality
comprised of three distinct cities - Kathmandu, Lalitpur (Patan), and Bhaktapur
- all of which boast rich histories and artistic achievements. Urban Kathmandu
now encompasses Kathmandu and Lalitpur to create a worldly, cosmopolitan
environment, while Bhaktapur retains the feeling of a medieval walled city, and
small villages all along the Valley rim still practice their traditional ways
of life. In one day, you can experience many layers of history, yet a full week
is still not enough to fully appreciate the diverse heritage of this fertile
Valley.
