Shamanism Trek | An Adventure Team Trek

Nepal is the nation having great historic importance. Nepal is the state of "Gurkhas". Nepal is the only independent country in the world. Although Gurkha soldiers lacked contemporary arms and ammunitions, they shielded Nepal's land from British colonization by showing their bravery and courage. Sailung, is a meeting point of nature and religion is another incentive of Dolakha. Thulo Shailung Shamanism Trek is described as one of the holy place for both Hinduism and Buddhism followers. Situated at the altitude of 3150m in between Dolakha and Ramechhap, Sailung is one of the best places to see a vast Himalayan range from Makalu to Dhaulagiri.

Sailung Dada is another Hindu Pilgrimage site where hundreds and thousands of devotees visit on Janai Purnima, Balachaturdashi, and the Bara Barse Mela (carnival that occurs once in 12 years). In the occasion of Janai Purnima, on the full moon of July/August Tamang pilgrim’s crowd around the ruined Chortens at the highest point of Thulo Sailung.

Nepali men and women feel pleased to talk about their background. Three of the world heritage sites in Kathmandu valley; Kathmandu durbar square, Bhaktapur durbar square and Patan durbar square highlight the historic significance of Nepal. These durbars were built by the Malla Kings. History enthusiast tourists can visit these areas to understand more about the history. In Nepal vacationers can find out about the history related with Lichchhivi, Malla and Shah Dynasty. They're also able to see the historic monuments, inscriptions, etc.

Similarly, if we speak about land features of Nepal, Nepal is the only country having extreme topographic version ranging from 70 meter to 8848 meter in the sea level. Nepal has the world's highest peak Mt. Everest at an altitude of 8,848 meter from sea level. Similarly, Nepal has been dispersed into three ecological regions; Himalayan, Hilly and Terai. Himalayan region covers 20 percent of total land area, Hilly area covers 63% of the total land area, and 17% of the total land area is covered by Terai. Terai area is known as the granary of Nepal. According to census report of 2011, 73.9% of people are wholly relied upon agriculture. Though, 73.9percent percent Nepalese are fully dependent on agriculture only 28.7% of Nepal's land area is arable. Nepal has over 6000 rivers and tributaries. Nepal is the 2nd biggest country in terms of water resource.

 Nepal is dependent on other countries mostly because its landlocked features. Nepal is a country which has been exporting raw materials and importing finished goods. Therefore, Nepal is bearing trade deficit since long time. Nepal is very rich country in terms of resources. However, the resources have not been used in its entire extent. Research have shown that Nepal has the potentiality to produce 83,000 Megawatt electricity in the fast-flowing rivers but unfortunately because of lack of enormous investment in this industry Nepal has been able to create only 1% of its total potential capacity. For a developed nation in the world, firstly Nepal shouldn't depend on other countries concerning hydropower.
