Why Budget Doesn't Mean Basic
Nepal on a Budget from Kolkata
Nepal is the roof of the world and one of its most spiritual places — a country where sacred peaks are both geographical facts and divine presences, where Buddhist and Hindu traditions have braided themselves into something entirely unique, and where trekking routes that go to the base of the world's highest mountains are accessible to anyone with reasonable fitness and two weeks. Kathmandu's ancient Durbar Squares and the great stupas of Boudhanath and Swayambhunath are Himalayan civilisation in its most concentrated form; the rhododendron forests of Annapurna and the khumbu glacier of Everest Base Camp are the planet's most dramatic natural stages.
