Before 1951 Nepal was inaccessible to foreign tourists, and until 1964 to travel to this wonderful and mystical land, was exclusively for the hardy climbers and explorers of the unimaginable. In recent years with the advent of tourism programs and the linkage by air with the outside world, travels to this land of adventures became a possibility. In its immensely diverse and undulating topography, varied climate and mix of people combine to produce a magical attraction for outsiders. Many of these foreign visitors come to trek one or more of the many beautiful trekking regions now open by Nepal Government.
