Nepal is of roughly trapezoidal shape, 800 kilometres (500 mi) long and 200 kilometres (125 mi) wide, with an area of 147,181 square kilometres (56,827 sq mi). Nepal is commonly divided into three physiographic areas: the Mountain, Hill, Siwalik region and Terai Regions. These ecological belts run east-west and are vertically intersected by Nepal's major, north to south flowing river systems. The southern lowland Plains bordering India are part of the northern rim of the Indo-Gangetic plains. They were formed and are fed by three major rivers: the Kosi, the Narayani, and the Karnali. This region has a hot, humid climate.

For a small country, Nepal has great physical diversity, ranging from the Tarai Plainthe northern rim of the Gangetic Plain situated at about 300 meters above sea level in the southto the almost 8,800-meter-high Mount Everest, locally known as Sagarmatha (its Nepali name), in the north. From the lowland Tarai belt, landforms rise in successive hill and mountain ranges, including the stupendous rampart of the towering Himalayas, ultimately reaching the Tibetan Plateau beyond the Inner Himalayas. This rise in elevation is punctuated by valleys situated between mountain ranges. Within this maze of mountains, hills, ridges, and low valleys, elevational (altitudinal) changes rersulted in ecological variations. Nepal commonly is divided into three broad physiographic areas: the Mountain Region, the Hill Region, and the Tarai Region (see

Extractions: Arriving in Nepal, the traveler enters an area which is unique in its orographic, botanical and zoological diversity. The geo-historical origins of the imposing Himalayan range, which comprises a considerable portion of Nepal, tell a fascinating story. Through our understanding of plate tectonics, from which the theory of continental drift is derived, we know that the Indian continental plate separated from the old southern continent of Gondwanaland and moved north, where it slid under the old Eurasian plate. In the process, the southerly Sea of Tethys narrowed, and when at the meeting point of the two plates the Himalayas emerged, the sediments of this sea were pushed up in the process. The fossils of sea animals at a height of over 4,000 meters are proof of this. As the Himalayas arched ever higher, rivers, whose sources are found on the Tibetan plateau, carved deep into the young mountains. This created the impressive traverse valleys which to this day serve to make the range penetrable to traffic and trade at a few points. With the incessant pressure of the Indian continental plate on the Eurasian, the growth in height of the Himalayas continues at a rate of one millimeter per year. A permanent leveling in the form of natural erosion counteracts this process. The Kingdom of Nepal comprises an area of about 147,000 square kilometers. It stretches over 800 kilometers from the northwest to the southeast, and is an average of 200 kilometers wide. From the Ganges plain to the main range of the Himalayas, Nepal ranges in altitude from 60 meters above sea-level in southeastern Terai up to 8,846 meters at the summit of Sagarmatha (Mt. Everest). More than a quarter of the land area is higher than 3,000 meters, and it is boxed in by mountain ridges, plains, valleys and basins, so that travel is extremely difficult.
