Which are we not suggest for you? Because of money, children got a bad habit, misusing the money and becoming like a beggar and they always waiting for something when they see some tourists in the future. If you like to give or offer them money, a better way to connect by the family, school or they are relative.

Nepal is a dependent Country; it has its currency called Nepalese Rupees. You can exchange the currency in the city, by the bank or withdraw by ATM’S which is easy. You can prepare your cash rupees how much you need it. The price of things in Nepal are pricing by Nepalese rupees. If you use to pay by foreign currency, you may lose some of the amounts by converting the currency locally. And, some it is confusing for the first-time traveler in Nepal.

Do not ware shoes while you entering the Nepalese Home or Religious places.

That is the most popular Nepalese tradition. Take off your shoes outside of the Home or kitchen room or side of the entering door of Temples and Monasteries.

Do not drink water directly from Taps, springs or River.

Do not wear too revealing dresses on trekking in Nepal.

Our Nepali community is still very simple and living genteelly follows by tradition. The western culture and fashion and revealing dresses are still not accepted everywhere in Nepal. While you visiting some places in Nepal, you may follow the dress restriction. Like up and down long sleeps.
