Everything you need to identify Nepal in GeoGuessr — from the writing system and road signs to bollard colours, utility poles, and the landscape itself.
These are the fastest visual identifiers — things you should look for in the first few seconds of a round.
Himalayan backdrop — Everest (8849m), Annapurna, Manaslu visible depending on location
Devanagari script (same as Hindi but in Nepal — 'NEPAL' written in Devanagari on signs)
Buddhist prayer flags strung across mountain passes — colorful strings of flags
Left-hand traffic; extremely narrow mountain roads with sheer drops
Trekkers and mountaineering references on signs; teahouses visible on trails
These details help narrow down a location once you've spotted the country — or confirm your guess when you're unsure.

Nepal drives on the left side of the road. In-game, the Google camera car is on the left side — so oncoming traffic comes from the right. The steering wheel is on the right side of the car (visible in reflections). This immediately rules out most of continental Europe, the Americas, and most of Asia.
Nepal is home to eight of the world's ten highest mountains, including Mount Everest at 8,848m. It is also the only country in the world with a non-rectangular national flag — a double pennon shape used since the 19th century.
