Mt. Everest
We had to see this great massif with our own eyes, so we took a sightseeing flight around it. If you are sick of photos of Mountains, hit the back button now.
Cause for a Nepali tea party
Sign says: "This is to notify that the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal will levy value added tax in addition to "passenger service charge" as per the directive received from Value Added Tax Department with effect from 16 July 2000 at all airports throughout the kingdom.
Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal
General office Babqarmabal"
So - they charge VAT (Value Added Tax) on the departure tax - tell me, what value does the departure tax add that they feel the need to tax it???? Tea Party anyone?
