Nepal is located entirely in the Himalayas. It is one of the poorest countries in the world because it has few natural resources and their extraction, as is agriculture, is extremely difficult. It is also the friendliest high-mountain country in the world.
Only Nepal has conveniently located high-altitude trekking routes and popular peaks for climbing: Everest, Annapurna, Kanchenjunga, Dhaulagiri, and Manaslu. This country has eight of the fourteen highest mountains in the world.
Not only climbers but also mountain lovers from all over the world visit Nepal every year. The combination of the Himalayas with transport accessibility, fairly developed service, decent hotels, authentic cuisine, and ancient culture creates a unique experience.
The main religion in Nepal is Hinduism, and some people follow Buddhism and other faiths. Religious shrines are another kind of popular Nepal tourist places.
