Nepal, you gotta see it to believe it – it’s like straight out of a dream! Home to the mighty Mount Everest, the tallest mountain on the planet, Nepal is basically on top of the world.  But here’s the real scoop: Nepal is mostly Hindu and Buddhist, but there’s something epic happening. After that massive earthquake rocked the place in 2015, people were left with nowhere to turn, homes in ruins, and loved ones hurting or gone.  But you know what? The hope of Christ is rising like never before! Churches are popping up, and entire families are discovering His love and turning to Him. And here’s where you come in – we’re trekking to these remote mountain villages to bring the good news. We’re showing these incredible people that there’s a God who loves them and wants them to be part of His life-giving family.  So, who’s down for the adventure of a lifetime in Nepal? Let’s spread that love and hope together!

Culture

Cows are sacred in Nepal and are allowed to wander the streets. When entering a temple, do not wear leather.

Visitors should dress conservatively, especially women. If encountering a Nepali dressed entirely in white, it means that the person is in mourning.

Ask permission before taking photographs in temples. Do not step over people’s feet or any other parts of their bodies. To sit with feet pointing at someone is insulting, especially toward a monk or llama. It is also insulting to pat children on the head.

The left hand should never be used for eating, handling food, shaking hands. However, presenting or accepting gifts is always performed with both hands.

Explore

Nepal is home to one of the most famous hikes in the world: the ascent to Mount Everest Basecamp.

One of the highest swings in the world is located in Nepal. Take a day-long trip outside Kathmandu to a bridge suspended above a scenic valley and experience the heart-fluttering drop down into the valley below.

Make sure to eat a traditional Nepali meal, and drink a cup of chai!

Stock up on all your Nepali style clothing in the Thamel shopping alleys.
