Usually, when we think of Nepal, we picture windswept mountain villages in the Himalayas, though most of the country lies at the base of the mountain range and we can also experience some tropic-like environments. Pokhara Valley is one of the most stunning locations in all of Nepal and we can feel the warm weather around the calm Phewa Lake, while the sacred and off-limits peak of the Machhapuchhare looms in the background.
As a naturalist guides us through Chitwan National Park, we might be able to catch sight of the Asian one-horn rhino or the Bengal tiger while we're riding along on the back of an elephant. See some of the intricate carpets woven by the Tibetan families in a Tibetan refugee camp near Budhanilkantha. When we're in the capital city of Kathmandu, we have a variety of excursions to take part in, from areas important to Buddhist worship, to the Royal Palace, which is adorned with immaculate statues.
