Nepal is popular for its scenic natural beauty and unique cultural impressions. Nepal is also known by the highest Mount Everest on the Earth having an altitude of 8,848 meters. Above all, Kathmandu is the centre of attraction for its lively culture. There are seven World Heritage Sites in Kathmandu only. Ancient palaces and temples are the major highlights of the capital city Kathmandu.
