Where is Garambesi? |
Nepal is small mountainous country sandwiched between the giants of China and India. It's inland position and mountainous environment contributes to the difficulties and high expense of transporting all goods in and out of the country. Nepal has few natural resources, which contributes to it being listed as the 13th poorest nation in the world. This poverty is quite apparent, once you travel outside the well known tourist centres of Kathmandu, Pokhara and the well-used trekking areas. Garambesi is a fairly remote village in the district of Lamjung, in the southern foothills of the Annapurna range of the Himalayas. Until recently the only access was on foot along a track, In recent years a new road bridge has been built enabling vehicles to now access the village.
