Nepal forms the very watershed of Asia. Landlocked between India and tibet, it reaches from subtropical jungle to the icy Himalayas, and contains or shares eight of the worlds ten highest mountains. its cultural landscape is very bit as diverse: a dozen major ethnic groups , speaking as many as fifty languages and dialects, coexist in this narrow, jumbled bufer state, while two of the worlds great religions, Hinduism and buddhism, mingle with nature-worship and shamanic practices. yet its a testimony to Nepali tolerance and good humour that there no tradition of ethnic or religious strife. Nepal was never colonized, a fact which comes through in fierce national pride and other, more idiosyncratic ways. founded on trans-Himalayan trade, its dense, medieval cities display unique pagoda-style architecture, not to mention an astounding flair for festivals and pageantry. Above all , though, Nepal is a nation of unaffected villages and terraced countryside-some eighty percent of the population lives of the land-and whether you are trekking, biking or bouncing around in packed buses, sampling this rural lifestyle is perhaps the greatest pleasure of all.
