Nepal has been
the dreamland of the tourists for a long time.
Nepal invites, welcomes, charms and bewilders the visitors. 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.
