Nepal is a landlocked gem, sandwiched between India and China, located in the Himalaya (“The mystic land of Yetis”).The country fascinates with mesmerizing mountains, rich cultural diversity, magnificent temples, artistic shrines, and inspiring natural scenery. Due to its geographical diversity, Nepal is one of the best travel destinations in the world. Whatever action you love to do, in Nepal you can do it! The choices to embark to a lifetime experience are endless.

Bhutan is well-known for its dramatically varied topography. It boasts a great diversity of awe-inspiring landscapes of snow-clad mountains, lush valleys, dense forests and rushing streams that are considered to be abodes of the gods.To the south lies India; to the north Tibet. Having only opened its doors to the tourism in 1974, Bhutan has remained relatively isolated from western influence and enabled to maintain a rich traditional based Buddhist culture.
The autonomous region of Tibet is located at the main part of Qinghai-Tibet plateau, south-West frontier of China. Tibet borders with Sichuan, Yuannan, Qinghai
and Xinjiang; to the south contiguous to India, Nepal, Sikkim, Bhutan and Burma, and bounded by Kashmir on the west. Open grassland, virgin forest, Tibet is also home for some of the world’s tallest mountains, with several of them making the top ten list with Mount Everest: the highest mountain on earth. With its particular dry climate, Tibet is worth a visit almost all year long. April to November are the milder months.
