Set in Nepal, not filmed there
1 more place in Nepal appears on this atlas because a game, an anime or a manga is SET there. Nothing was filmed at it: a drawn or rendered work is filmed nowhere, and some of these places are invented and pinned on what Wikidata says they are based on.
Also named as shot in Nepal by their Wikipedia articles
7 productions name Nepal in their Wikipedia articles as where they were shot, without a place inside it, so they are listed here rather than pinned or dropped.
