Nepali Congress MP NP Saud has said that Nepal's tourism is diverse and has potential.

In the meeting of the International Relations and Tourism Committee of the House of Representatives held on Wednesday, he requested the government to give priority to the neglected tourist destinations and promote them.

committee member Saud expressed his concern that Nepal's immense natural and cultural potential is still not being utilized in a systematic manner. Geographically, Nepal is a very beautiful and diverse country. It is necessary to formulate the specific identity here,' he said, 'we have a lot of potential for diversification in tourism.' But the challenges have not yet been met.

MP Saud said that there is a need for more policy clarity and action in promoting Nepal's tourism. According to him, currently Nepal has not been able to increase the number of tourists according to its target.

"Our goal is to reach 20 million tourists, but we haven't been able to achieve that," Saud said, "we need to do more to bring as many tourists as we need." 

Saud mentioned that there are 40 trekking routes within Kathmandu Valley alone and said that many of them are still unexplored. "Such trails and destinations need to be identified and promoted," he said, "It's time for the Ministry of Tourism to work on the full potential of these destinations."

 

'We have failed to take advantage of that population . Religious and cultural diversity is another important aspect in Nepal's tourism," he said. "We have cultural heritage of Buddhism and Hinduism. If we present it correctly, we can bring a large number of tourists.' 

He stressed that road and air traffic obstructions make tourists uncomfortable and that the government should pay attention to improve them. "Some challenges have been created by our infrastructure," said Saud, "without improving it, the experience of tourists cannot be improved."
