8 best holiday destinations–besides Everest and Ilam–in Province 1, Nepal’s easternmost region

Province 1 that covers most of eastern Nepal is quite underrated when it comes to tourism. Like the far-western part of the country, the east is disregarded as a tourism destination.

Although the Everest region does see a lot of tourists, the rest of Province 1 does not. Ilam does get its fair share of domestic tourists thanks to the tea garden, but tourism entrepreneurs in Province 1 feel the number should be a lot higher as there are a lot of places in the province worth visiting.
