Importantly, youths from western metropolis too have regarded Nepal as the land of spiritual Shangri‐la since 1960s. Hippies, the great bunch of souls who travelled all the way from different American cities to Nepal in the 1960s were in fact the forerunners of tourism cultures in Nepal. Had they not marched to this land, probably tourism cultures would have become a thing of very sad and recent times.
