There is no earthquake in Nepal at present, just on the border between India and Nepal. Just look at the picture.

The following is a travel brochure for Nepal. I have been typing for a long time! ! I have been to Nepal before, where there is a strong religious culture. )

Accommodation? Accommodation facilities in Nepal can meet the needs of all kinds of tourists, from luxury hotels with international standards to student hotels with distinctive local customs, accommodation fees are very cheap. Even student hotels have different conditions. Accommodation costs 2-6 dollars a day, and there are usually separate bathrooms. The accommodation environment here is good, with different styles of gardens and courtyards, which can avoid the bustling downtown, stay out of it and be carefree.

In Kathmandu, a double room in an ordinary hotel costs about $65,438+00 in the tourist season and only $ 3-5 in the off-season, with a private bathroom and a standard room with hot water.

In Boccara, hotels and inns in lakeside areas are generally more expensive than those in dam areas. It is suggested that tourists must live in the lakeside area, where the environment is relatively clean, so that they can not only be surrounded by Feiwa Lake, but also open the window and overlook the fish tail peak. This good mood will last from morning till midnight.

In Wang Chi, tourists are advised to stay in hotels in parks, watch the stars in the night sky, listen to the roars and owls from time to time, and breathe the warm air.

Diet? Nepal itself has not formed its own unique cooking style. Nepalese cuisine is only a change of Indian local cooking, including some changes in diet from China and Tibet. Rice is the staple food of Nepalese, and the staple food of mountain people is mainly corn, millet and buckwheat. Nepalese like to eat pancakes, potatoes, vegetables and mutton, and drink milk and tea. When eating, everyone has a plate with staple food and vegetables in it, and they eat it with their hands.

Darbat Tibetan Jiaozi Tibetan Bread Niwa flavor Darbat besides white rice, there are curry potatoes, stir-fried dishes, bean soup and some pickled side dishes. It is to mix the side dishes into the rice with your right hand, which is indeed more even and delicious than eating with a spoon.

There are various cooking methods, such as steaming, frying and bringing soup. Tastes like doughnuts.

It is eaten by making white rice into dry slices and dipping them in potatoes seasoned with spicy curry and other side dishes. Side dishes include all kinds of dried beans and raw bacon, and the most special thing is that the plates are sewn with leaves.

Shopping? It is no exaggeration to say that Nepal is a shopping paradise. There are a wide variety of souvenirs sold in Nepal, mainly musical instruments and decorations from China, Tibet, Buddhism and Hinduism, and of course, local handicrafts in Nepal.

Kathmandu, the capital, is a place where shoppers often get unexpected gains. Children sell Gurkha knives, belts and copper coins. Where there are tourists, there are vendors selling handicrafts, businessmen waiting on the steps of temples, and there are bargains, antiques and souvenirs everywhere.

Activities? Nepal is recognized as one of the best places to explore in the world. Nepal's natural terrain condenses the most diverse scenery in a small area. Nepal may be the only country like this in the world, where you can climb the highest mountain in the world, visit the beautiful countryside, enjoy the ice peaks in the background forever, and explore and hunt in the forest.

Holi Festival Mountaineering and hiking Hunting in the jungle Climbing Nepal's most colorful and joyful festival lasted for 7 days. This festival originated from the fairy story that the banshee Holly was burned to ashes, so it is also called "Holly Festival". During festivals, people can sprinkle red powder on each other's faces or heads and bless each other, whether they know each other or not.

In recent years, people not only throw red powder, but also use water guns and balloons filled with red liquid. If you get wet with red, don't be angry, because Nepalese regard red as a symbol of good luck.

There are eight high mountains in Nepal, with the highest peak over 8000 meters, including Mount Everest, the highest peak in the world. Since Nepal opened its mountain peaks to climbers in 1949,

The Himalayas in Nepal have become a big stage for mountaineering. Whether saints, philosophers, researchers or adventurers, the attraction of the Himalayas in Nepal is irresistible.

The best way to experience Nepal's unparalleled natural beauty and cultural treasures is hiking. People can walk along paved roads or explore unexplored roads.

In addition to rhododendron flowers, lonely villages, small mountain villages, birds, animals, temples, monasteries and amazing scenery, visitors will meet friendly people from different cultures and explore the charming style of traditional rural life.

Nepal's national parks, especially those in Terai, attract tourists from all over the world. There are many ways to kill wild animals in these parks.

Including walking, canoeing, jeep driving and elephant riding. Besides rhinoceros, wild boar, water deer, sika deer and lazy bear can also be seen frequently.

Walking in nature or the jungle is another way to experience the wilderness. Morning and evening are the best time for walking.

Although there are so many thrilling stories staged here, Kathmandu has to provide tourists with a long list of names of stone walls, which can give people an unforgettable experience.

Recently, rock climbing has become a popular sport in Kathmandu, which can provide a straight climbing place.

Garjun, Balaju, Shivabri and Podanikanta are some places where tourists can try this sport.

Cultural geography? Environmental history Nepal's climate is very good, with four seasons like spring, which belongs to a typical monsoon climate. A year is divided into two seasons: drought and rain. The dry season is 10 to May of the following year and the rainy season is from June to September. Due to the great difference in topography between the north and the south of Nepal on the southern slope of the Himalayas, the vertical climate changes greatly throughout the country.

Nepal has a long history and established a dynasty in the 6th century BC. Historically, Nepal, Korea, Ryukyu, Annan (Viet Nam), Sulu (Philippines), Myanmar, Nanzhang (Laos) and Siam (Thailand) were eight vassal states granted by Emperor China.

In A.D. 1769, Prithvi narayan Shah, King of Gurkha of Shah Dynasty, who rose in central and western Nepal, conquered Kathmandu Valley. Since then, Nepal has been gradually reunified and started to have an accurate and informative history.

18 14 British invasion forced Nepal to cede a large part of its southern territory to British India, where it enjoyed various privileges and its diplomacy was supervised.

1846 to 1950, the Rana family seized the military and political power with the support of the British, gained the status of hereditary prime minister, and made the king a puppet.

1923 Britain recognizes Nepal's independence.

In July 2008, the Constituent Assembly of Nepal elected the President, the Vice President and the Chairman of the Constituent Assembly. The name of the country was changed from "Nepal" to "Democratic Republic of Nepal".

Precautions? Dress: Most parts of Nepal have a subtropical monsoon climate, with an average temperature of 12-22 degrees in February and March. Just take a thin sweater and coat when traveling. In addition, Wang Chi is tropical, with hot weather all year round, humid and sultry from June to September every year, and locusts are rampant. I suggest not to go to Wang Chi at this time. Due to the abundant sunshine in Nepal's dry season, tourists must prepare outdoor products such as sunglasses, sunscreen and sun hat.

Tipping: Nepal is a country that needs tipping. The waiters, restaurant waiters, bellmen and other service personnel in local hotels are warm and thoughtful. You might as well give a tip as a token of your gratitude. It is generally appropriate to tip 5-20 N, but it is not necessary for taxi drivers.

Medical care: There is an epidemic enteritis in Nepal called "Kathmandu dysentery". Don't drink raw water and try to avoid eating raw vegetables, salads and fruits. Although Nepal is not an epidemic area, in forest areas, such as Wang Chi National Animal Park, it is best to start taking malaria pills two weeks ago and stop taking malaria pills six weeks after leaving Nepal.

Communication: Mobile communication in Nepal is not very developed. Although I successfully applied for roaming, the mobile phone I took out still doesn't work. There are many Internet cafes in Kathmandu, the capital, so it is convenient to make phone calls and send emails.

Power supply voltage: The voltage in Nepal is 220 volts or 240 volts. The plugs of the capital Kathmandu Hotel are two-phase or three-phase round heads, while those of the National Forest Park and Boquera are two-phase round heads. Visitors are advised to bring a universal plug.
