Nepal is a prime destination for butterfly enthusiasts, home to an impressive 651 species (3.72% of the global total), including striking varieties like the Great Orange Tip. This rich biodiversity has drawn naturalists for over 150 years, with research evolving from early British observations to significant Japanese contributions and the establishment of the Natural History Museum. While butterfly collecting is now prohibited, visitors can witness this incredible array during peak seasons (late March-April, mid-May-mid-June, late August-September) in diverse habitats across the Kathmandu Valley and beyond, such as Swayambhu and Shivapuri, where both Palearctic and Oriental species flourish. Experience Nepal’s captivating butterfly world!
