Nepal is a mountain country between India and China, home to eight of the ten highest peaks on Earth, including Mount Everest. Our Nepal puzzles show Himalayan peaks, a mountain lake and the temples of the Kathmandu Valley.

The Kathmandu Valley has seven groups of monuments protected as World Heritage, where Hindu and Buddhist traditions live side by side. Boudhanath is one of the largest Buddhist stupas in the world, its white dome painted with the watchful eyes of the Buddha. In Bhaktapur and the old royal squares of the valley, pagoda temples rise in tiers of carved wood and brick.
West of Kathmandu, the city of Pokhara lies beside Phewa Lake, where colourful boats float on water that reflects the snowy peaks of the Annapurna range.
