BACKGROUND
Page.4
The concept of resorts originated in Nepal along with the promotion of the tourism development. Resorts in
Nepal have come a long way in a short period of time. Nepal owes many resorts of different types. Despite the
resorts sites of Nepal are not of International lines, they more often cater to specific themes such as Mountain
viewing, Wildlife safaris, Village resorts and scenic panoramas.
Resort literally means a place whose purpose is to provide visitors recreation and relaxation. Today, more
function has been added to its utility like outdoors sports, conference and exhibitions, a venue for physical
fitness, hospitality units such as guest rooms and cottages etc. Most of the resorts are also influenced of nearby
ethnic culture and architecture. The price of basic amenities such as food, lodging and services available vary
with the range of the local resorts.
Resort cannot be built in urban areas, there should be some special feature on the location or on remote area
with scenic view, in context of Nepal too has required some specific location. Resort is concerned more in
informal activities than formal. The services system in resort should be efficient and sophisticated and the
entire area should be planned in aesthetic way.

Resorts in Nepal are being popular as a good business enterprise. On one hand, this business is helping in
improvement of economy level of the whole country and the people of the same area. And on the hand our
traditional culture, skills architectural heritage, and spirit are being conserved, making the people close to the
nature.
Seeing present need resort should also cater all types of people, national and international tourist and the
locals.
