Touring Nepali Villages

• HB Kham

However, you have no idea of how spiritually, morally advanced, incredible country it is and how tantalizing and spectacular landscape and abundance of natural heritage it possesses.

It is not only the land of brave Gurkhas, Buddhist monks and nuns but also the abode of Hindu religious people who co-exist here despite having diversity of cultural and religious ethos.

Touring around the beautiful villages of Nepal could offer you much better chances of mixing and mingling with the heterogeneous people of Nepal whose hospitality will entice you and make you feel at home when you are away from home.

The villages of Nepal are of different features in different places as you move from low elevated plain villages to mid hills and upper hills. The low plain hill villages will make you perspire in summer while high hill villages will make you shiver with cold in snow.

There are ancient villages with ancient features that attract your for enigmatic historical origin and locations. Touring the villages beyond what has been much advertized will be more significant to experience  and observe more from such touring trips in Nepali villages.

For example going off the beats to explore remote villages such as Uwa, Gam and Gusbang and Thabang in Rolpa, Myagdi, Dhorpatan, Baglung, Kalikot, in Karnali or Sudurpachim provinces would provide more thrilling experiences.

For this new experience to feel, one must choose the roads not taken by other tourists and trekkers in the past. You must choose the destinations which have not been shown on the trekking map of Nepal.

There are ancient villages which can offer you the best of experience and feel of amazement and wonder but you need to take a different without taking notice of what usual menu of travel and tour suggested to you by the travel agents in Nepal.

In these villages you still find people living in joint families with at least 100 family members not yet divided at a time when the so called modern society believes in single and individual family in the world.

When the post modern world is adopting naked culture of relaxing on the sea beaches to take respite from the daily hectic life, these ancient villages still gather around big fire in the evening time with their clothes on and exchange their experiences and engage in local folk songs.
