Chitwan National Park (CNP), established as Nepal's first National Park, is nestled at the foot of the Himalayas and is home to one of the last populations of single-horned Asiatic rhinoceros and is also one of the last refuges of the Bengal Tiger. It is particularly noted for its rich flora and fauna.
The best time to visit Chitwan is from October to early March, when temperatures are pleasant at 25°C. If you can stand the heat, come in April and May, the end of the dry season when wildlife gathers at waterholes – temperatures can reach the mid 40°Cs. January is the coldest month, with temperatures skimming freezing at night.
Chitwan National Park is home to many endangered animals such as the one-horned rhino, royal Bengal tiger, gharial crocodile and fresh water gangetic dolphin. Moreover, wildlife enthusiasts will find a thriving population of four types of deer, two types of monkeys, wild boar, sloth bear, elephant and leopard.
Yes, Nepal is a budget destination. It is one of the most economical countries we have visited. Accommodation is generally affordable, with a variety of hostels, dorms and guesthouses.
A city tour of Kathmandu's famous sights plus day trips to other historic landmarks just outside the city can be enjoyed in a comfortable amount of time. If you manage your time wisely, you could even fit both city tours and day trips into two days.
Kathmandu is a worthwhile trip. Bhaktapur is my favorite spot in the valley. Viewing Everest and the entire Himalayan range from the air was an incredible experience. I truly enjoyed my time in Kathmandu.
Generally, Nepal is generally known for its friendly people and hospitality towards tourists and visitors, and is generally considered a safe place to visit. However, it is still important to exercise caution, as crime rates can still be low.
