Unlock Tourism Potential

Endowed with enchanting natural beauty, rich flora and fauna, and precious cultural sites, Nepal holds a huge potential for tourism development. In recent years, the country has witnessed an influx of foreign tourists particularly attracted to the snow-capped mountains, thrilling trekking routes, and historic, cultural and spiritual destinations. The world’s tallest peak Sagarmatha (Mt. Everest) always fascinates the people from around world. Lumbini, the birthplace of Gautam Buddha, and Pashupatinath, a pious temple of Hindus, beckon a large number of religious tourists from different countries. While the tourism has been an important medium of interactions with the foreigners, it has also been a reliable source of foreign currency for the country that largely relies on the international assistance and partnership for development projects.
