NEPAL: The Real Country Behind the Mountain | 4K Travel Documentary

Eight of the fourteen highest mountains on Earth stand in Nepal. The lowest point in the country is fifty-nine metres above sea level, and it is subtropical jungle with tigers and one-horned rhinoceros living in it. The two are less than two hundred kilometres apart — and almost nobody in Nepal lives anywhere near a peak. Behind the mountain is a country of twenty-nine million people and a hundred and twenty-three languages that was never colonised by anyone. A valley of medieval city-states that exported its architecture to the court of Kublai Khan. Ten thousand caves cut into cliffs in Mustang that nobody can explain. Cliff honey harvested twice a year from the largest bee in the world. In this documentary, discover how a country the size of Arkansas holds every climate zone between the tropics and the poles, why its lowlands stayed empty for centuries, and how Nepal brought its rhinoceros back from ninety-five animals. Take a breath. Stay a while. ▶ See More 4K Travel Documentaries:    • FALKLANDS: The Islands With No Reason to E...      • NAMIBIA: The Desert That Swallowed an Enti...   ▶ Subscribe:    / @whereonearth4k   #Nepal #TravelDocumentary #Documentary #WhereOnEarth #Himalaya #Everest
