Nepal is a kingdom of high Himalayan Mountains, artistic monuments, exotic wildlife, and diverse cultures. It is the land where Lord Buddha was born over 2,500 years ago. Roughly rectangular in world map, the kingdom of Nepal is situated between China in the north and India in the south. The land extends approximately 193 KM north to south, and 885 KM east to west. Nepal is primarily an agricultural country. With beautiful panoramas and Geography, Tourism too has been one of the major industries.

For its size, Nepal surprisingly contains the greatest latitudinal variation on this planet. The land rises from the terrain, the southern plains at almost sea level, and within a short distance to north culminates at Sagarmatha (Everest), the highest peak in earth. Eight of 14 summits in the world over 8000m lie in Nepal.
