A community portal about Nepal with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: Nepal, officially the Kingdom of Nepal , is a landlocked Himalayan country in South Asia, bordered by China to the north and by India to the south, east and west. Nepal is a kingdom of various geographical features, and is culturally rich.

Nepal boasts eight of the world's fourteen highest mountains, including Mount Everest on the border with China. Kathmandu is the capital and largest city. The other main cities include Bharatpur, Biratnagar, Bhairahawa, Birgunj, Janakpur, Pokhara, Nepalgunj, and Mahendranagar. The origin of the name Nepal is uncertain, but the most popular understanding is that it derived from Ne and pal.
