Religion is an integral and
deep-rooted part of Nepalese life. Nepal is only
country constitutionally declared Hindu state in
the world, but many religions are practice here.
A remarkable feature of Nepal is thus the
religious homogeneity that exists, particularly
between the Buddhist and Hindu communities. The
rich cultural heritage of Nepal can be seen in
the diverse social customs and frequent
socio-religious festivals, which spill into the
streets and squares of the cities and villages.
There is hardly a day or a place where one can
not see the celebration of some sort of
festival, however small. You can see that it has
its root in distant history. Percentages of
religious are:
A. Hindu: 80% B. Buddhist: 15% C. Muslim 3% D. Others: 2%
