				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><b>8 Things to Do On Your Adventure Trip to Nepal</b></p>
<p>Life style of an individual plays a decisive role in his preferences. Education or vacation, ideas of individuals vary. While some love to relax in a serene atmosphere amidst breathtaking landscapes on a holiday, some love to go all out and get adventurous. The ‘adventure element’ in man has brought him this far since the evolution of mankind and man can never stop enjoying the thrill and seeking horizons unknown and treading lands where even ‘devils’ do not dare. If it is the adventure element in you that has brought you to Nepal, here are some guidelines on the top 8 things to do on your trip to Nepal, which has 8 of the 10 highest mountains on earth.</p>
<p><b style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;">1) Trekking</b></p>
<p>If you had planned to come to Nepal, you are sure to have trekking at the top in your list of priorities. Famous for some of the best treks in the world, Nepal is not just a feast for your eyes. Whether it is tea house trekking or organized trekking called camping, you could have your choice in Nepal. Tea house trekking is very common in Nepal. If you opt tea house trekking, you will be staying at local lodges in the night. You get to interact with people and understand their culture as tea house trekking lets you stay connected to the people. Moreover, you can trek at your convenience. Some of the most popular tea house trekking routes are Everest, Annapurna and Langtang areas.</p>
<p>In camping trekking, you will be experiencing an organized approach to trekking, which is supported by a complete team. The team comprises guides, camping staff, cooks and porters. The team sets off with all necessary equipments to trek. Here, at the end of a day’s trekking, the team will fix the campsite at the most suitable location. The food is prepared at the campsite and everyone rests here until the next day. Organized trekking gives you an opportunity to discover remote areas. Some of the best camping trekking locations are Dolpa, Rolwaling, Dhaulagiri and Makalu. You could plan your trekking based on your physical endurance level, number of days available for you and your budget. You could go trekking from one week to more than a month’s trekking.</p>
<p>Everest Base Camp trekking is a classic trekking route that takes you to the base of the world famous and highest mountain. This could be the ultimate experience as right from the beginning up to the destination; you would love every moment of it. On your way to Everest base camp, you will have awe-inspiring views of Himalayan peaks.</p>
<p><b style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;">2) Mountain Biking</b></p>
<p>Mountain biking in Nepal is a unique experience as it is dramatic, adventurous and incredible. Words fail to translate your experience in mountain biking in Nepal. Your skills are challenged with tough climbs and hair raising descents in the Kali Gandaki valley, which is the deepest valley on earth. Some mountain biking routes touch your soul with scenic beauty and diverse landscape. You could experience both ends on mountain biking here. Challenging tours let you explore your inner strength while long pleasant rides let you explore Nepal and the beauty it has to offer. Some of the famous mountain biking tours are Kathmandu Valley biking tour, Annapurna Circuit biking, Valley Rim short, Upper Mustang biking tour and so on.</p>
<p><b style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;">3) Bungee Jumping</b></p>
<p>Bungee jumping is a popular sport in Nepal. It is so terrifying that the sight of some one performing the act scares the observer. This is where you need to be if you are seeking adventure. The first bungee jumping site in Nepal is located 100 km away from Kathmandu. The 160m bungee jumping site is over river Bhote Koshi and it is close to Nepal-Tibet border. A three-hour long bus journey from Kathmandu will take you to the bungee jumping site. Nepal’s longest suspension bridge connects two sides of the great valley.</p>
<p><b style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;">4) Paragliding</b></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;" data-mce-mark="1">Pokhara in Nepal ranks fifth among the best locations in the world for paragliding. Paragliding in Nepal takes you over the lakes and gives you an excellent view of the Himalaya in all its glory. Take off point for gliding is Sarankot and you land by Fewa Lake. While you paraglide, you get to view the stunning landscape around the valley, rivers and Fewa Lake. You can photograph these great views as the paragliding harness provides you the best comfort and make you feel as safe as a bird that is on air. Other paragliding areas in Nepal are Bandipur and Kathmandu.    </span></p>
<p><b style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;">5) Expeditions</b></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;" data-mce-mark="1">Expeditions in Nepal are the most natural thing to do as it is a land where you find 8 of the world’s 10 highest mountains. Ever since 1953 when Mount Everest was scaled by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay, Nepal became the favorite destination for mountaineers. There are 8 mountain expeditions in Nepal that are above 8000m and 10 mountain expeditions between 6000m and 7000m. Well-trained and experienced guides will be with you throughout the expedition. Experiencing the beauty and fascinating charm of the region is the ultimate moment for any mountaineer.</span></p>
<p><b style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;">6) Rafting</b></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;" data-mce-mark="1">Your adventurous tour of Nepal is not complete without rafting in Nepal rivers. The rivers plunge from the highest mountains and reach Ganges, the greatest plains on their journey towards Bay of Bengal. While the white waters keep your spirits high, the serene stretches let you indulge in the bountiful beauty of nature. Some of the famous rivers in Nepal where you could go rafting are Sun Koshi river, Trisuli river, Bhote Koshi river, Seti river, Karnali river and Marsyandi river. Sun Koshi river is among the world’s top ten rafting rivers.   </span></p>
<p><b style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;">7) Jungle Safari</b></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;" data-mce-mark="1">Nepal is not only famous for its towering mountains but also for its tropical jungles. The dense forests are home to some of the rare wildlife habitats. Out of the 14 national parks in Nepal, Chitwan National Park and Koshi Tappu Wildlife Reserve are very popular. Chitwan National Park is easily accessible. Jungle safaris offer education, entertainment and exercise. You get to learn a lot about the wildlife, you can do bird watching and the elephant ride is sure to thrill you. Jungle walks on the grass lands energize you. Some of the activities during jungle safari at Chitwan National Park include jungle walk, village walk, elephant ride, jeep ride and canoeing in river Rapti. Never forget to bring your binoculars to have a closer look on the rare species.        </span></p>
<p><b style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;">8) Canoeing</b></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;" data-mce-mark="1">Yet another adventurous sport in Nepal is canoeing. Nature has been extremely generous to the Mountain Kingdom. Rivers from the mountains and lakes in Nepal are best suited for canoeing thanks to the natural setting. White water canoeing is possible only in Nepal, the land with high mountain peaks. All the 16 rivers in Nepal offer you canoeing facility. Some of the rivers famous for canoeing include Trisuli river, Sun Koshi river, Kali Gandaki and so on. Sun Koshi is the longest canoeing route of all the rivers thanks to the 270 kilometers-stretch. Canoeing is the best way to explore the magnificence of the regions by the famous rivers. Canoeing at Chitwan National park is a perfect blend of adventure and calm. While the waters are calm to make your ride pleasant, you get to see wildlife on the riverbanks. While deer and monkeys are pleasure to watch, you may not appreciate the idea of having crocodiles too close to you for comfort.  </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;">It can never be assumed that all is said about Nepal and the adventure it has to offer. You need at least a month to experience some of the most beautiful features of the land. The best way to ensure that you cover all the important places in Nepal is to have a perfect travel plan. And of course, you need to plan your budget as well. When a land has so many wonders and adventures to offer, you cannot afford to miss something for want of money. You could make use of </span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 19px;">make my trip coupons</span></span><span style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;"> to save on your travel and accommodation expenses. Plenty of travel coupons are made available on </span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 19px;">Coupon Lava</span></span><span style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;"> website. One should remember that cutting down on expenses is money saved. And while on travel, money thus saved helps you with quality spending.</span></p>

The icing on the cake is that you have a chance to win a Nepal holiday for 2 persons and thus you will be able to take a friend along with you and make the best out of the trip.</p>
<p>The week long trip in which you will visit Nepal and engage in different adventure sports and sightseeing is sure to leave you thrilled and to add to it, you will not be spending a single penny from your pocket on accommodation, breakfast, overland transport &amp; sightseeing. Here is an in detail description of the trip that I know you so badly want to win.</p>
<p><strong>Arrival in Kathmandu</strong></p>
<p>We all know how famous Nepal holidays are as there is a lot to do and see in the country and so once you have packed your bags, you will be flown down to Kathmandu and once you land there you will be received at the airport and will be taken to the hotel where you will be sojourning. Over here you will be given some pointers by our tour leaders. You will be familiar with this process in case you have been a part of the various Nepal tours that are held regularly. After this, you will be leisure of your own to walk around city, visit tourist area and perhaps dining for dinner in one of the finest restaurants of Kathmandu.</p>
<p><strong>Sightseeing in Kathmandu</strong></p>
<p>If you have been to Nepal in the past then you will be well aware of the fact that sightseeing is an integral part of the holiday. There are hiking tours and cultural tours that are available, but none of them can take the place of sightseeing as the place is filled with scenic beauty that will leave you enthralled. Keeping this in mind, the next day has been kept entirely for sightseeing. You will get to visit the Boudhanath Stupa. This pace is of paramount relevance to the Buddhist people. You will also have a chance to shop Buddhist artefacts that are sold in the nearby areas. Also you will be driven to the Pashupati temple that is of religious importance to the Hindus as well as the Buddhists.</p>
<p><strong>Moving from Kathmandu to Pokhara</strong></p>
<p>Once the Kathmandu tour is over you on the second day, you can get a good night’s rest and then be ready to be transported from Kathmandu to Pokhara on the third day, once you have had your breakfast at the hotel. Upon reaching the place by a tourist coach you will have time for a walk along the Fewa Lake. The place is brimming with natural beauty and you will come across crystal clear lakes that are cradled by mountains. The day in Pokhara is sure to be a memorable one for you.</p>
<p><strong>Sightseeing in Pokhara</strong></p>
<p>On the fourth day, you will get to visit Devis Falls, Bindawasini Temple, Gupteswar Cave and International Mountain Museum.  Remainder of the day will be yours for rest or walk around few lake.</p>
<p><strong>In Pokhara</strong></p>
<p>Today is a leisure day for yourself. You have option to go for a short hike or trek. If you are fond of flying around Pokhara; Paragliding should be missed.</p>
<p><strong>In Pokhara</strong></p>
<p>Today is again leisure day which you can use to explore Pokhara city in detail.</p>
<p><strong>Travelling from Pokhara to Kathmandu</strong></p>
<p>On the final day of trip, you will be served breakfast in Pokhara and then you will be transported back to Kathmandu where you can spend the whole day doing whatever you want, rock climbing in Nepal is surely a good idea.</p>
<p><strong>Departure from Kathmandu</strong></p>
<p>You are all set to fly back after a memorable journey, after you have had your breakfast.</p>

<p><b>Culture &amp; heritage</b></p>
<p><a href="http://www.lumle.com/destination/1/nepal.html">Nepal</a> is a land that has a very glorious and ancient past and that is visible in its architecture and the various monuments that it has. There are various other religious and cultural heritage sites that are present all over Nepal and these places are sure to take your breath away. If you are not really into <a href="http://www.lumle.com/region/52/Trekking.html">trekking</a> then a culture tour is sure to be liked by you. Some of the places that are worth a visit have been.</p>
<p><b><i>Pashupatinath<a href="http://www.lumle.com/blog/2012/12/nepals-visit-culture-experience-sites/sadhu/" rel="attachment wp-att-974"><img class="size-medium wp-image-974 alignright" alt="" src="http://www.lumle.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Fotolia_269872_Subscription_Monthly_L-205x300.jpg" width="205" height="300" /></a> </i></b></p>
<p>One of the most sacred Hindu shrines in the world, Pashupatinath lies 05 kms east of the city centre at the edge of the holy Bagmati river. The richly-ornamented pagoda houses, the scared linga or phallic symbol of lord Shiva chronicles indicate the temples existence prior to 400 AD.</p>

<p><b><i>Bhaktapur </i></b></p>
<p>This is also the city of art and architecture. The 12th century palace of 55 windows, situated to the left as you enter through the city gate, inspires admiration. The entrance to the palace, the golden gate is a masterpiece in repossess art.</p>
<p><b><i>Swoyambhunath </i></b></p>

<p>It is one of the most important beautiful places of the world which is a rare combination of the long arrays of snow clad peaks, crystal clear lakes, turbulent rivers with deep gorges and picturesque villages inhabited by simple and friendly ethnic people.

<p>It is situated at the lap of panoramic <a href="http://www.lumle.com/tripDetail/461/Annapurna_Base_Camp.html">Annapurna</a> Himalayas range and world famous Mt. Machhapuchhere (fish-tail).
