One sector that flourished in Nepal even when the country was going through the political turmoil in the last decade was without doubt the Music. No matter what, we sang and listened to one new song after another that young and creative musicians offered us. Unlike Nepali film industry that is struggling to get quality audience, the reach of songs in Nepali society is vast: people from the street to the palace enjoy Nepali songs with equal enthusiasm. [Contrary to this, majority of Nepali film audience comes from lower middle class.] Rap, rock, pop, folk, hip hop, remix you name it and you can find songs in Nepali market composed by the young and innovative Nepali musicians. The folk songs have invaded urban area, previously dominated by the Hindi songs, and the new genres of music have kept Nepali youths hooked up. It wouldn’t be hype to say that music has transformed the urban youth culture. Very few iPods sell in Kathmandu markets but make no mistake people are listening to all kinds of songs. English songs are also popular among youths in urban Nepali society and yes Hindi songs (especially from Bollywood films) are there but they are facing tough competition from the quality songs and music videos offered by the Nepali music industry. - See more at: http://www.tajavdo.com/videos/fida-bhayo-manramji-khand-sarishma-magar-hd-mpeg/#sthash.aKstwG4p.dpuf

Nepal recognised to be one of the world’s extraordinary mountain biking destinations and this extremely good cross-usa motorcycle experience, pioneered through KE, is one in all our favourites and an stated classic. Linking together a maze of far flung dust roads and village paths between Pokhara and Kathmandu, this is a first rate mountain biking adventure in just a week and a 1/2. Flying to Pokhara, we have multiple days cycling the location’s conventional routes, consisting of the Kali Horseshoe, with great perspectives of the Annapurnas and of the lovely Macchapucchare (Fishtail). We then trip eastwards, thru the Marsyangdi River and the ridge-pinnacle metropolis of Gorkha. From right here, we have devised a excellent new 2-day phase that absolutely avoids the principle Pokhara to Kathmandu avenue and follows instead an intensive route along the Ankhu Khola (one of the foremost tributaries of the Buri Gandaki River). finally, beyond Trisuli Bazaar, we make the checking out, mile-excessive, climb to the Kathmandu Valley rim, in which we are dealt with to a panoramic landscape of Himalayan peaks from our lunch forestall at Kakani. The very last afternoon’s ride presents an unique downhill blast returned to bustling Kathmandu, and then we can have fun in fashion inside the incomparable Nepalese capital. that is a trip at low altitude, with conventional Himalayan trails and a commonly very best weather. stunning surroundings and brilliant cycling across numerous terrain, together with the friendliness of the area people, make this an unforgettable revel in. - See more at: http://www.kantipur-video.com/videos/the-worlds-extraordinary-mountain-biking-of-nepal/#sthash.O2sGOnIB.dpuf
