February-April, at the end of the dry season, is the second best time to travel. The weather warms up and trekking at high latitudes is less strenuous. The colorful rhododendrons and other flowers are in full bloom this time.
In December and January, it is colder. The cheap guest houses in Kathmandu have no heating facilities and the mornings and evenings are bone chilling.May-June is hot and dry with temperatures often above 30 degrees and a worrying upcoming monsoon climate.June-September is monsoon and it rains almost every day, with muddy mountain passes and roads.

What are the best months to visit Nepal?
The climate of Nepal can be simply categorized into rainy season and dry season, the rainy season is from June to September, which is characterized by a lot of rainfall and can cause a lot of inconvenience to your tour. The rest of the time, which can be called the dry season of Nepal, is more favorable for traveling. Nepal's climate can also be divided into 3 regions, the northern alpine region has a cold climate, the central valley region has a temperate climate, and the southern plains region has a subtropical climate, which is hot throughout the year, with maximum temperatures reaching over 40 degrees Celsius. So when traveling to Nepal, you have to prepare in advance based on the specific region you are visiting. Based on years of experience, we give you the following advice on the seasons to visit Nepal.
Best Season: The best season to visit Nepal is October and November, which is also the beginning of the dry season in Nepal. The timing is similar to the fall time in the north of the country, with bright sunshine, fresh air and comfortable temperatures. It is the golden season of the year for tourists for sight seeing, photography and trekking. This period is also the most prosperous season for Nepalese tourism, and the relative cost of tourism will be slightly higher.
Next best season: February-April is also the better season for traveling in Nepal. This period of time has a mild climate, dense vegetation, flowers in full bloom, a different view. The time is just in time for the Chinese New Year in China, so you can take advantage of the Spring Festival vacation and take a trip to the beautiful Nepal.
General Season: This period refers to December and January, the main problem is the temperature, although also belongs to the dry season, rainfall is not much, and the air is fresh, but there is a big temperature difference between day and night. Especially for those areas with high altitude, the temperature in the morning and evening is relatively low, if you go to Nepal to climb mountains, trekking, or participate in rafting this kind of tourism program, it is recommended to avoid this time.
Worst Season: The rainy season in Nepal is from June to September, influenced by the climate of the Indian subcontinent, this period of more rainfall, for tourists is very inconvenient. But if you want to see Nepal's unique rainy season scenery, or do more *** rafting, this season is an option.

Which is fun in Nepal and Bhutan
The ethnicity of Bhutan can be roughly divided into 3 types: the first is the indigenous people, mainly living in the eastern region of Bhutan; the second is the descendants of Western ***, mainly living in the western region of Bhutan; the third is the descendants of Nepalese people, mainly living in the southern region of Bhutan.
The present inhabitants of Bhutan are the descendants of those who migrated to Bhutan from neighboring countries many centuries ago. The physical characteristics of the people belong to the Mongoloid race, which is strong, dark-skinned, hard-working, and speaks Tibetan and Burmese, and has a similar way of life.
According to evidence, the ancestors of the Bhutanese mainly from China ***, Burma, Nepal and India. According to Sanskrit texts, the indigenous people of Bhutan are the Kuchi tribe. The people of this tribe, known as Ngalop, migrated from China *** to the northern and western parts of Bhutan in the 9th century A.D. and brought with them the culture of China *** and Buddhism, which are still an important part of Bhutanese politics and culture today. After a long period of evolution, their way of life, customs, language and culture, and psychological qualities differed from those of the *** in many ways, and they gradually formed a separate ethnic group, the Bhutanese. In the following centuries, Burmese, Indians and Nepalese came to Bhutan. The Indo-Mongolians who migrated from Assam or perhaps Burma to the eastern part of Bhutan are known as "Shachop", or easterners. Though they were the largest group in Bhutan, they were gradually integrated into the culture of the ***-Alo people, as they were in close proximity to India and some of them spoke Assamese or Hindi. After a long period of mutual conquest and assimilation among the various ethnic groups, the ethnic composition of the Bhutanese is becoming simpler. Now, the only major ethnic groups in Bhutan are the Bhutanese and the Nepalese.
Bhutanese - Bhutanese, also known as "Drukpa" (Drukpa), spread throughout the country, accounting for 50% of the country's total population, mainly China's western *** blood and Indo-Mongolian blood descendants and Drokpa (Drokpa), Lepcha (Lepcha), and other ethnic groups. They are mainly descendants of Western Chinese *** and Indo-Mongolian origin, as well as of the indigenous Drokpa, Lepcha and Doya tribes. They have their own customs and language, like to wear purple fabric clothes, girdle, covered with a leather coat, wearing leather boots, wearing a kind of cap made of yak hair on the head, the tip of the cap has a slanting groove slanting to one side, used to drain the rainwater. Their physique and appearance are very similar to those of the *** eastern Bhutanese, with thick bones, broadly clenched cheekbones, prominent jaws, and long, slender eyes and a robust body. The Eastern Bhutanese are different from the Western Bhutanese. The Bhutanese living in the area east of the Dongla Pass have more similarities with the inhabitants of the western part of the Mensum region of China ***. The Bhutanese living in the area west of the Phera Pass, on the other hand, bear a strong resemblance to the inhabitants of the Chumphi Valley in eastern *** Asia and northern Sikkim. The Bhutanese are mainly engaged in agricultural and pastoral production, with a few engaged in commerce and industry, etc.
Nepalese - The ancestors of the Nepalese came to Bhutan from the Kingdom of Nepal in the 19th century (the Nepalese side claimed that it was the 17th century), and the physical characteristics of the people, their habits and language are very similar to those of the inhabitants of the Kingdom of Nepal. The Nepalese now constitute 35% of the total population of Bhutan. They mainly live in the southern region of Bhutan in Sangche, Kilang, Chhukha, Dagana, Jilep, Sharpen, Shamdrup Dzongkhag, etc., and are mainly engaged in horticulture, plantation, industry and commerce.
Other ethnic groups - There are also some indigenous people and migrants in Bhutan, who account for about 15% of the total population of the country, living in scattered areas throughout the country, maintaining their own ethnic styles and habits, and engaging mainly in agriculture, animal husbandry and commerce.
