This article aims to cover the best time to visit Nepal, which is March to May. Nepal is nestled in the Himalayas. So when someone goes uphill, they will notice a drastic change in the temperature and weather. This is why it is best to plan your trip after knowing all the season.
Nepal has four seasons, and we can divide them into spring, summer, autumn and winter. Here are some events and activities that you can participate in if you wish to visit Nepal for your next vacation:
