Nepali culture is a vibrant mix of ethnicities, religions, and traditions, creating a unique identity [[1]](https://boundlessadventure.com/blog/culture-traditions-nepal)[[2]](https://www.hopnepal.com/about-nepal/culture-in-nepal). The culture is expressed through various forms such as music, dance, art, folklore, languages, literature, philosophy, religion, festivals, cuisine, and customs [[3]](https://uk.nepalembassy.gov.np/pages/culture-and-society-of-nepal/)[[4]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Culture_of_Nepal). A notable aspect is the religious harmony, primarily between Hinduism and Buddhism, with many shared deities and interconnected religious sites [[2]](https://www.hopnepal.com/about-nepal/culture-in-nepal)[[5]](https://ntb.gov.np/plan-your-trip/about-nepal/culture). Festivals are integral, with major celebrations like Dashain and Tihar bringing communities together [[2]](https://www.hopnepal.com/about-nepal/culture-in-nepal)[[6]](https://www.roughguides.com/nepal/culture-and-traditions/). The tradition of greeting with "Namaste" reflects the deep respect for guests and elders [[2]](https://www.hopnepal.com/about-nepal/culture-in-nepal)[[7]](https://www.nathab.com/know-before-you-go/asia-the-pacific/bhutan-nepal/cultural-dos-and-donts/cultural-dos-and-donts-in-nepal).

Nepali people in Hong Kong primarily live in the

Yau Tsim Mong district (including Yau Ma Tei and Jordan)and theYuen Long districtin the New Territories. The concentration in these areas is partly due to the historical presence of theGurkha brigade of the British Armyin places likeShek Kongin Yuen Long and military barracks near Yau Ma Tei. While these are the main areas, the community is now more dispersed across other districts, including Wan Chai, and more recently, the Kam Tin area.
