Nepal: How bad is the rainy season?

score:4

Although this year (2013) at the time of writing it appears that Nepal is raining heavily each and every day, virtually all day, my research shows that this is not typical. Typically during the monsoon season, it appears to rain for several hours each afternoon/evening and in fact if trekking is not your goal this seems to have the benefit of reducing dust/pollution in the cities, making the air much clearer. In addition the late monsoon season of August/September hosts most of Nepal's cultural festivals, so although I have yet to visit, it appears that if culture experience rather than trekking is your goal the late Monsoon season may even be the very best time to visit Nepal.
