Here is a video introduction to Nepal we did in the 90s, sponsored by the United Nations Development Programme as part of a campaign to tell the world that Nepal was much more than Mt. Everest, that it offered some of the most unique natural and cultural treasures in the world. Unfortunately some of the heritage sites shown in the video are now in rubble. The video was produced in English, French, German and Japanese and, long before YouTube, was cited by the Daily Telegraph and the BBC as being a prime example of he possibilities of new medium, streaming video.
