Nepal has been the
dreamland of the tourists for a long time.
Nepal invites, welcomes, charms and bewilders the visitor. Those
who have already visited Nepal cherish
the desire for a second visit and those who have heard or read
about the kingdom make a plan to visit the country.
The pattern of religion gives the country
a unique status in the world. Almost all the important religious
sects of the world are found in Nepal, however, the majority of the
population believes in Hinduism and the conglomeration of the two
religions, Hinduism and Buddhism serve as an unique example of tolerance
and brotherhood. Many festivals of religious significance are celebrated
commonly with equal enthusiasm by both the sects and there is the
co-existence of all the other religious.
