jupal village nepal
The region of Dolpa is the largest and most sparsely populated district of Nepal covering an area of approximately 8,000 sq. kilometres it contains Phoksundo Lake, which is the areas deepest lake and the Religious centre of Shey Gompa which is one of the most important religious sites in Nepal. Dolpa is one of the few Nepali districts that is behind the main Himalayan mountains resulting in a landscape of bare looking hills with little vegetation similar to the high plateau of Tibet. Few people live or travel in this remote area, and as a result, the people of Dolpa have an isolated culture centred on the Tibetan way of life the region is accessed via the airport in Juphal which is a village and former Village Development Committee that is now part of Thuli Bheri Municipality in Nepal
