Nepal, at the foot of the mighty Himalayas, is a surprising destination of interest to lovers of culture as well as active vacationers. Traveling to Nepal means, for example, to make an individual trip to the cultural treasures of the Kathmandu Valley, search for armored rhinos in Chitwan National Park on elephant back, and relax on the romantic lake of Pokhara.
In the northern and eastern part of Nepal lies a large part of the Himalayan mountains including Mount Everest which is the highest point on earth with a summit of 8848 meters. Nepal furthermore features seven of the ten highest mountains on earth. The Everest base camp is located at 5400 meters above sea level. It is a primitive camp site at the foot of the Khumbu icefall. Although you can not see Mount Everest from the base camp many trekkers consider this place a highlight of their trip. From Kala Pattar you get a far better view of Mount Everest, the Khumbu icefall, and the surrounding mountain giants.
The climate in Nepal is generally pleasant. The summer coincides with the monsoon and extends from June to October. The other months of the year are dry. Spring and autumn are the most pleasant seasons. Winter is cold with a lot of frost and snow in the mountains.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) praises Nepal for implementing regulations to control tobacco. The WHO believes that the regulation will control smoking and other consumptions of tobacco products which are considered the main problem of public health.
