With the
globalization of the village tourism, many countries,
including Nepal, have been promoting beautiful villages
as destinations for village tourism. Throughout the
world, village tourism has been identified as an
important tool to alleviate poverty in rural areas. In
Nepal too, many villages has been identified as
destination for village tourism. Visitors visiting the
area not only consume the locally grown products but
also buy local handicrafts as souvenirs. This provides
villagers with alternative source of income apart from
the traditional farming, which will in turn help
alleviate poverty thereby lifting the living standards
of the locals.
Nepal's Terai possesses a beauty that is totally
unexpected in a country known mainly for soaring
snow-covered mountains. Chitwan, a majestic and powerful
location teeming with wildlife hosts one of Asia's
finest national parks, renowned for its dense
concentration of wildlife. Seas of elephant grass ripple
beneath a magnificent sunset and pervasive sense of
relaxation soaks in deeper, the longer you stay.
Chitwan literally means 'heart of the jungle' and in
recent years, Chitwan tops the list of things to do in
Asia. With its astounding wildlife, Chitwan is a true
wildlife adventure. Elephant rides, jeep tours, bird
watching and canoe trips offer a different slant on the
luxuriant teeming forest.
Royal Chitwan National Park - Sal forests cover 70% of
the area and there are about 600 species of plants and

rhinos and other endangered species like the Royal
Bengal Tiger, the Gangetic Dolphins and the Gharial
