A resort is a full- service lodging facility that provides access to or offers a range of amenities and recreation facilities to emphasize a leisure experience. For the design of resort, I have used mainly two phases of the study. Firstly, Research phase which includes Literature review and C spatial needs and requirements on related design. This helps the project to observe the condition, features, organization of existing resorts and literature review helps to compare with them. Here planning, position of building was leamt. The spaces needed was visualized. study which focuses on data, facts, Secondly, Design phase which includes Site selection and analysis, Program formulation along with Zoning, Conceptual design, Design development, analysis and evaluation of output design and preparation of Architectural drawings along with 3D views, model report for final completion. This phase leads on creating proper design of thesis selected topic. Site was sele ent to taltaliya wetland and park. Site was zoned according to orientation and the factors affecting it. Existing water bodies were followed to zone the resort. Later positing of units was to get the views from each unit, ed in Itahari-2, Sunsari adja The concept of resort is emerging popularly in recent days, as the flow of tourist to our country is immensely good. It is human nature that he wants to perch on the lap of nature and admire it. so many people leave their habitual dwelling to take some rest form their hectic life and visit to dis-cover new experiences. Mostly they are seeking serene environment. I have chosen site near Taltalaiya wetland park at the lap of community forest with diverse wildlife. So, for this design I have tried to bring nature visually close. Also, the concept for the proposed leisure resort is “Blending with nature” All of the guest unit are placed in such a position from where guest can interact with nature visually with minimum intervention with existing site as far as practical The proposed design of resort will become the tourist destinations for both local and foreigners Taltalaiya, Iahari providing pleasing atmosphere throughout their stay. Visitors can taste the luxury as well as the lifestyle of people. Besides the place can be better place for meetings, conference, organizing parties and so on, On completion of this project Resturant with swimming pool (110 capacity), Administration, Conference Hall, Meeting Hall, Banquet/MPH, Guest accomodations (70 capacity), spa and health club, billiard hall, back of the house amenities such as maintenance block, housekeeping, and staff canteen, staff accommodation (12 capacity) and various parks and recreational programs such as boating, bird watching, natural trail tour, tharu cultural dinning and museum were designed and architectural drawing were prepared.TABLE OF CONTENTS CHAPTER I 1, INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background 1.2 Tourism and Resort Scenario in Nepal 1.3 Significance of the project 1.4 Problem statement 15 Project justification 1.6 Objectives 1.7 Project Study area. 1.8 Project scope and limitations 1.9 Definition of terms CHAPTER 2: METHODOLOGY CHAPTER 3: LITRETURE REVIEW 3.1.1 Introdu ion to Leisure 3.1.2 Introduction to Resorts 3.1.3 Classification of Resort Page No 10 uw R 14 14 173.1.4 Major functions of the resort 3.1.5 General requirement for resort 3.1.6 Guidelines for Resorts 3, 1 Architectural design 3.1.7.
