http://www.destinationplanner.com/asia/nepal/culture_nepal.html

Extractions: with Creative Travel At once a time machine and a magic carpet, Nepal sweeps you along crooked, timeworn streets flanked by irregular, multi-roofed pagodas, stupas and stone sculptures, and into rooms cluttered with horror-eyed masks, spinning prayer wheels, trippy thangka scrolls and Tibetan carpets. Muttered chants, esoteric tantric hymns and Nepalese music hang in the air, whether it be the twang of a four-stringed saringhi or the plaintive notes of a flute. Traditional folk musicians, or gaines , gather for an evening of singing and socialising; classical dancing and trance-like masked dances enliven the Kathmandu Valley and Bhaktapur regions; while no wedding would be complete without the raucous damais - Nepal's modern ensembles. Religion is the lifeblood of the Nepalese. Officially it is a Hindu country, but in practice the religion is a syncretism of Hindu and Buddhist beliefs with a pantheon of Tantric deities tagged on. The remainder of the population that isn't Buddhist or Hindu are either Muslim, Christian or shamans. Nepal's food is surprisingly dull given that it lies at the intersection of the two great gastronomic giants India and China. Most of the time meals consist of a dish called

Mountain biking in Nepal Contemplating life in Nepal Researching Nepal on the Web It is Gyanu and Sham, two of four Sherpas who take turns rousing semicomatose Western trekkers from their mountainside slumbers with cups of near-boiling tea. ''Lena, Lisa,'' the young men sing out to my Canadian tent mate and me. ''Good morning!'' Just minutes after the morning elixir is distributed, large bowls of warm water are passed precariously through our front door for a pre-breakfast sponge bath. IF YOU GO ... GETTING THERE: Major airlines flying directly to Katmandu, Nepal, from the United States are Singapore Airlines and Thai Airways. Other carriers in Europe and Asia make connections with the national carrier, Royal Nepal, or many of the regional airlines that fly into Nepal. BEST TIMES TO GO: Fall (mid-September to November) is the most popular trekking season because it is after the monsoon season and features mostly dry, warm days and cool nights. But there are benefits to trekking at other times of the year as well, except for summer. Nepal has monsoons from late May through August.

Kathmandu Mountain Bikes is a Nepalese Biking Tour Company, owned and managed by native Himalayan Mountain Bikers of Nepal - perhaps the first one to be officially registered and established in the Kingdom of Nepal. Come and join our biking adventures, from light and introductory biking to the ultimate challenge of negotiating age old trade routes winding along the mountain ranges towards the higher Himalaya. Nepal has all the ingredients for classic mountain bike travel, staggering mountain scenery, miles of serene rural dirt trails and tranquil tarmac roads which lead you away from the bustle of Kathmandu. Once off the tourist track, we will trace the trails through lush terraced fields, small villages to ancient Hindu and Buddhist temples and shrines. Our tours take you through the middle hills of Nepal as well as the southern Terai plains and the Northern Annapurna range including the peaceful routes around Pokhara. Mountain biking offers a tremendous way to see the most exotic sights of our kingdom, such as the ancient routes of Trans-Himalayan traders and the rural village life of Nepal. Here you will feel as though you had been swept back and absorbed into the timeless culture and rich flora and fauna which forms the basis of our heritage.
