Nepal is a country of great diversity of landscape and people with their age-old religions, cultures, and heritage. The lowland people of the Terai is populated by the Tharu ethnic tribe, spreading across the country from east to west. The Tharu people migrated to Terai in the early days from Northern India some centuries ago. In the beginning, they were nomads hunting, fishing, and livestock. At present, Tharu has settled permanently, engaging in farms and large agricultural products.
The Terai area is known as the breadbasket of Nepal due to its vast paddy fields yielding and harvesting of rice and crops for the whole country. The Terai belt and its dense jungle was a land of malaria that was eradicated in the early 1960s. From then on, the mountain people began to migrate to the fertile land of the southern country of Terai.
Tharu people are interwoven with the Hindu religion and similar cultures to the Indian predecessors across the border. Tharu are lively people who enjoy various festivals, dancing, singing, and playing traditional instruments. Visitors will have the opportunity to witness the cultural programs of Tharu tribes, with various forms of dance. Supporting local women-led services aligns with our Women Adventures mission and reinforces the values behind women trekking guide agency programs.
