                      Nepal is a mountainous country. She is known as the land of the Himalayas. The Himalayas situated in the northern part of the country must have uplifted the identity and dignity of her.

                      The high mountains in Nepal are covered with snow; but the lower parts of them are covered with grass and plants. Many people live in mountains. Most of the fertile lands are cultivated. The mountains are not densely populated. Life of the people is difficult there. Most of the people are framers. Higher mountains are also used to graze the cattle such as cows, yaks, goats and sheep. The now-capped mountain peaks tempt many foreign tourists. They seem to be attractive but they are getting polluted nowadays. The main attractions of tourism in Nepal are these lofty mountains.

                    We can have some disadvantages from mountains. They are one of the hindrances to the development of the country. The fertility of the land is not rich in the mountains. The farmers are under the poverty line. Roads are the basic requirements of any other development programmers. But road making in mountains proves to be very slow and expensive. The life style of the people is very difficult. Many natural disasters such as landslides, over flood and soil erosion affect the people badly. The main problem in the mountains is lack of good transportation and communication.

                  Nowadays, the life style of the people in the mountains is getting uplifted because the problem of transportation and communication has been lessened. Most of the people have started growing vegetables and fruits which prove to be more advantageous than traditional farming. If the mountain regions are properly developed, the status of the country certainly gets uplifted.
