Dont Put It Off. Visit Nepal Tourism Year - 2011

You MUST visit Nepal in 2011, or you may well regret it.

Nepal is set to re-establish itself as a significant and unique destination for travellers with its "Visit Nepal Tourism Year - 2011".

The Nepalese Ministry of Tourism and Civil Aviation is promoting this ambition plan to increase tourism in a bid to create local jobs, and therefore reduce the level of poverty that a large percentage of the population endures.

They are looking to construct a new International airport, as well as upgrading some of the domestic airports.

They are also identifying new trekking routes, so that there are new challenges for the regular visitors, as well as spreading the visitors away from the currently more popular areas.

It sounds like a great initiative as it will benefit both travellers and locals.

Hope to see you there!
