Nepal, located in the Himalayas, boasts a rich cultural heritage and stunning natural scenery that appeal to many travelers. While the country has faced challenges in attracting a steady flow of international tourists, it remains a potential destination for some of the 10.6 million Brazilians who travel abroad annually.
Nepal is considered relatively safe for tourists, including those from Brazil. According to the Global Peace Index, Nepal ranks 78th out of 160 countries, which is significantly better than Brazil's ranking of 129th. In terms of crime statistics, Nepal has a much lower murder rate of 2.1 per 100,000 people compared to Brazil's 22.5. Additionally, while both countries face challenges with organized crime, Nepal generally scores better in several categories, such as mafia groups (Nepal 4.5 vs. Brazil 7.5) and drug trade activities. Overall, tourists from Brazil can expect a safer environment in Nepal compared to their home country.
