What are the precautions for traveling to Nepal?

Matters needing attention in Nepal tourism:

1, Nepalis are gentle, slow to do things, and have a weak sense of time. It takes some patience to communicate with local people. When eating in a restaurant, it usually takes a long time to serve after ordering. Try not to find food when you are hungry.

2. Most Nepalese believe in Hinduism. Many Hindu temples are off limits to non-Hindus. For accessible temples, some temples stipulate that shorts and short skirts are not allowed. Take off your shoes when you enter the temple. Remember to walk clockwise when you turn the stupa.

3. For some religious ceremonies, tourists should get permission before shooting, and try not to take pictures when they see the funeral ceremonies unique to South Asia. This is an act of disrespect.

4. Try to buy bottled water or drink boiled water. It's best not to drink free water.

If you are worried about the hygiene of accommodation during rafting or hiking, bringing wool sleeping bag lining can ensure you sleep better.

6. Bring your own toiletries and combs, which are not provided by most hotels in Nepal.

7. As in other parts of South Asia, the left hand is considered unclean in Nepal, so please avoid handing things to others with your left hand and don't shake hands with your left hand. In addition, when you meet a lovely child, don't touch the child's head to show intimacy, which will make the other parent unhappy. Because Hinduism believes that the head is sacred and outsiders cannot touch it. Don't point your feet at others when sitting.

8. On the way to the scenic spot, you need to pay attention to the children who take the initiative to take photos with you and then ask for tips.

9. Nepal has power outages for most of the year. It is best not to leave the hotel alone at night. In case of power failure, you should pay more attention to safety.

10, walking on the road in Nepal, you may meet children pestering you for money, or asking for other food and use. Please don't be kind at this time and refuse them sternly. Because it has become a habit for Nepalese children to ask tourists for things now, this behavior can only increase their bad mentality of getting something for nothing and taking chances. If you want to give your heart to the children here, you can donate money to the local children's welfare fund through formal channels.
