The Himalayas of Nepal

Nepal is a mountainous country. She is also known as the land of the Himalayas. The Himalayas situated in the northern part of the country must have uplifted the identity and dignity pf Nepal.
          The high mountains in Nepal is covered with snow, but the lower parts of them are covered with grass and plants. Many people live in mountains.Peoples of the Himalayan region live inall the ways that human beings have devised to survive on the earth: as hunters and gatherers, nomadic herdsmen, shifting splash and burn cultivators, settled agriculturalists, petty traders, and industrial enterprenueurs. They live in felt tents, thatched huts, brick houses, and stucco palaces. Over forty million people live across the terrain dominated by the world's highest mountain range. This fronteir region is predominately rural. Transport and communication are particularly difficult, and the ethnic groups are astoundingly diverse. Isolation and countless migrations have led to myriad forms of social and cultural adoptation. There are muslim, hindus and buddhists, but many people also retain their own separate ethnic identity and worship. This one thousand, five hundred mile long region is the homeland for what is arguaby the most diverse spectrum of people in the world. Most of the fertile lands are cultivated. The mountains are not densely populated. Life pf the people is difficult there. Most of the people are farmers. Higher mountains are also graze the cattles such as cows, yaks, goat and sheep. The snow-capped mountain peaks attract many tourists. They seem to be attractive, but they are getting populated. The main attractions of tourism in Nepal are those lofty mountains.
                   These mountains in Nepal are very important. Our tourism trade depends on them. Many tourists visit Nepal to watch the mountains. Some of them come to Nepal to climb the snowy mountains; especially they climb Mt. Everest, the highest peak in the world. Many rare herbs are found in the Himalayas regions of Nepal. We can use them directly as the medicine or they can be used to make important medicines. If we sell them to foreign countries we can earn foreign currency. The snow-capped mountains are the origins of the rivers of Nepal. Therefore mountains are the permanent sources of water. The climate and environment are completely fresh and healthy in the mountains.
                 Nowadays, the life style of the people in the mountain is getting uplifted because the problem in the mountain is transportation and communication has been reduced. Most of thepeople have started growing and fruits which are more advantageous than traditional farming. If the mountain regions are properly developed, the status of the country certainly gets uplifted. It is said that the development of the mountains in Nepal supports the development of the whole country.
