Posted by Nick Niesen on October 26th, 2010

Nepal has always been a popular tourist destination when people from around the world visit Asia; it is not only the fact that Nepal is a land of many mysteries, contrasts, and tranquility, but also because it possesses some of the most beautiful casinos in South Asia. In fact, South Asians themselves travel to Nepal especially to indulge in the casino excitement and entertainment.

Asia has been enjoying gambling since ancient times; one can even observe this in famous paintings and sculptures of kings and queens indulging in the temptation gambling provides. Therefore, it is with little surprise that Nepal, even though is not a large country, has a vast number of casinos all over its territory.

Nepal casinos are known never to close on any day of the year and thus, you can never be turned down when you are looking for lady luck to smile your way. Nepal casinos allow only those above the age of 18 to gamble or drink alcoholic beverages; if you don't prove your age with valid photo identification, you may be asked to leave the casino's premises immediately.

Katmandu, the capital city of Nepal, hosts one of the largest and most famous casinos in the country, the Shangri La. With over 50,000 square feet, the Shangri La offers everything you could ever wish to play, from the simple slot machines to all the famous international games such as poker, roulette, blackjack, and craps. The Shangri La also likes to pamper its guests and offers cocktails and snacks on the house, as do most of the other Nepal casinos, as well. Be sure you always fully understand the laws and house rules, however, in order to avoid misunderstandings.

In Nepal, the national language is Hindi; however, English is widely spoken, especially in places frequented by tourists such as the casinos. Any time is a good time to go to Nepal so, why not this vacation? After you explore a new place with lots of culture and sights beyond imagination, you'll be able to play some of your favorite games in Nepal's casinos any time of the day or night.

To book a vacation package, contact your local agent or visit online and you will be able to compare and choose the right vacation package for you. Special packages that cover most famous casinos are available, and they usually include all the must-see tourist attractions, as well.
