Nepal ist die Wasserscheide Asiens. Das Land liegt zwischen Indien und Tibet mit Landschaftsformen, die von subtropischem Dschungel bis zu den eisigen Höhen des Himalaya reichen. Zehn der höchsten Berge der Welt gehören ganz oder teilweise zu Nepal. Mindestens ebenso vielfältig ist die Kultur: Ein Dutzend große ethnische Gruppen mit 50 Sprachen und Dialekten leben in diesem kleinen Pufferstaat, in dem sich Hinduismus und Buddhismus, zwei der großen Weltreligionen, mit Naturverehrung und Schamanismus verflechten. Diesem landschaftlichen und kulturellen Reichtum trägt das Travel Handbuch in vollem Umfang Rechnung: Es bietet eine Fülle von Informationen für die individuelle Reiseplanung, gibt Tipps zu Unterkünften, Restaurants und Transport. Einen besonderen Schwerpunkt bilden Outdoor-Aktivitäten mit Kapiteln zu Trekking, Rafting/Kayakfahren und Mountainbiking. Ein weiteres Plus sind die vielen beschriebenen Reisewege: von selten befahrenen Hochgebirgsstraßen bis zu abgelegenen Grenzübergängen nach Indien oder Tibet – das Buch lässt selbst hartgesottene Traveller nicht im Stich. Hilfreiche Tipps und Adressen zu Yoga, Meditation und Ayurveda sowie die ausführliche Behandlung der nepalesischen Geschichte und der Glaubensvorstellungen machen dieses kompakte Reisehandbuch komplett.

It also highlights the wildlife and national parks in the north, particularly the Parc National de la Pendjari, now managed by African Parks, recognized as one of the best places in Europe to see lions and elephants. A dedicated chapter on Cotonou provides detailed recommendations for dining and accommodations, while the rest of the country is organized into five accessible chapters filled with listings, hotels, restaurants, and historical context. The guide includes a field guide to local spiritual practices, showcasing the unique cultural experiences available, such as meeting wizards and purchasing love spells. Beyond its enchanting folklore, Benin boasts diverse birdlife and two of Africa's finest parks, offering thrilling encounters with buffalo, elephants, and lions.
