Art and Culture

Culture is embedded in the high peaks of Nepal, tradition flows with its river, art traverses through its valleys. Nepal in short is a country where art and culture are a part of life of the inhabitants. People celebrate every moment with aroma, adding novelty to the traditions without affecting their essence. The art and architecture of Nepal is deeply influenced by the religion. Unique craftsmanship can be found in temples, architecture, shrines, fountains and the design of religious objects. Art and religion is so deeply interlocked that it is impossible to seperate the one from the other. All art forms express both Hindu and Buddhist iconography. The culture of Nepal is a assemblage of music, architecture, religion and literature. the mountain kingdom is multi-ehtic and multi-lingual. The land is rich with unique cultural groups like chhetri, brahamns, newar, tharu and many others.
