Nepalis in Germany
Nepalis in Germany consists of immigrants, refugees and expatriates from Nepal as well as German people of Nepalese descent. Most of them live in  large cities like  Munich,  Frankfurt,  Hamburg and Berlin. However they are spread all over Germany. Nepalese living in Germany have basically three different backgrounds: (a) Those who came as au-pair and student, (b) Those who  arrived german on the basis of familie reunion and (c) those who have been arrived as refugees. Migration History
Hundreds of Nepalis emigrated from Nepal to Germany to seek political asylum, fleeing persecution either from the Maoists or police. A small number of Nepalese entrepreneurs and international students have also migrated to Germany for business and further education. Distribution

Munich
There are around 200 Nepalis living in and around Munich and there is also a small but thriving community of students studying medicine, language and other subjects. There is also a Nepalese restaurant in Munich known as "Yak & Yeti - Himalayan Food House" as well as a Nepalese school. Munich is also home to a Nepalese temple garden known as the Pagoda Nepal. The center of the garden is a hand carved pagoda. As in Nepal, the nine-meter-high pagoda stands on a plateau. The temple figures that flanked the staircase are issued just as the temple bell in the pagoda. Elsewhere
Other cities with significant Nepalese populations include Berlin, Hamburg and Göttingen. Organizations
