One of the world’s most adventurous travel destinations. The Himalayan Kingdom of Nepal has faced its hardships in recent times, from a Maoist uprising to the massive earthquakes that destroyed landmark monuments and entire villages. However, Nepal always comes back stronger, just like its resilient people. As the country starts to rebuild after the 2015 earthquakes, travellers are starting to return to the land of chanting monks, colourful temples and god-like mountains.
