Nepal, located in the Himalayas, boasts rich culture and stunning natural scenery, appealing to many travelers. While it faces challenges in attracting a steady stream of international tourists, it remains a potential destination for some of the 2.7 million Turks who travel abroad annually.
Nepal is generally considered a safe destination for tourists, including those from Türkiye. According to the Global Peace Index, Nepal ranks 78th out of 160 countries, indicating a relatively peaceful environment, especially when compared to Türkiye, which ranks 137th. In terms of crime statistics, the murder rate in Nepal is slightly lower than in Türkiye, with Nepal at 2.1 per 100,000 people compared to Türkiye's 2.5. Additionally, while Türkiye has higher indices for organized crime, such as mafia groups and state crime, Nepal's scores suggest a lower prevalence of such issues. Overall, while no country is without risks, tourists from Türkiye can generally feel safe when visiting Nepal.
