What climate type does Nepal belong to?

The whole country is divided into three climatic zones: the northern mountainous area, the central temperate zone and the southern subtropical zone. The lowest temperature in the northern cold season is -4 1℃, and the highest temperature in the southern summer is 45℃. The terrain is high in the north and low in the south, and the relative height difference is rare in the world. Most of them are hilly areas, and the land above sea level 1000 meters accounts for half of the country's total area. Nepal is surrounded by mountains in the east, west and north, and has been known as the "mountain country" since ancient times. The southern part is an alluvial plain with fertile soil, dense forests and vast grasslands, which is an important economic zone in Nepal. The central valley is hilly and the capital Kathmandu is located in the Kathmandu Valley. The majestic Himalayas block the dry and cold wind in the north, making it a pleasant climate and beautiful scenery. The mountains and valleys in the northern mountainous areas are deep and misty. The mountains are covered with snow all year round, so grazing can only be carried out in summer. At the same time in the whole country, when the southern plain is extremely hot, Kathmandu, the capital, and Pakra Valley are full of flowers and spring, while the northern mountainous area is winter with snowflakes flying.

The dry season starts from June 65438+1October every year to June165438+1October, which is the best time of the year in many ways: mild climate, fresh air and high visibility, and it is also the peak season for local tourism and mountaineering.

February to April is the end of the dry season and the second best season for tourism: because there is more dust in the air, the visibility is not very high, but the weather is warm and many wild flowers are in full bloom.

From February 65438 to the following year 10, the climate and visibility were good, but it was cold. If the cheap hotel has no heating, it will be particularly difficult at night. For hikers, we should be fully prepared, because we often encounter snowy days this season.
