Galkot, Nov 2 : Mobility of domestic tourists has increased in Beldhunga – a tourism site of Baglung.
Number of
tourists turning up to Beldhunga has upped after wider publicity and
construction of tourism infrastructures.
Beldhunga is
located along the border of Baglung's Kathekhola rural municipality-3, Dhamja
Okhale and Myagdi's Beni municipality-3, Bhakimli.
The Gandaki
province government and locals had joined hands for the development of physical
infrastructure in Beldhunga which remained in the sorry state of affairs after
landslide took away its upper part.
Now it has
become easier for the tourists coming to Beldhunga with the arrangement of home
stay at Okhale in Dhamja. Ramesh KC of Jaimini municipality said it was
delightful and encouraging to come to the area.
"I came to know about the zone through news and social media but it was more beautiful than what I heard. Trekking arrangement and scenic beauty of Himalayas attracted me a lot", he narrated his experience.
Construction of
new structures following demolition has increased its attraction. Trekking
route with stone-made rallying, entrance gate, notice board and natural view
tower of Beldhunga have made the tourism site more alluring.
Visitor can
enjoy seeing Himalayan range and other high-hill areas from Beldhunga.
Beldhunga now
has been recognized as a tourism hotspot across the country. Locals of Baglung
and Myagdi had not only changed the structure of the place but also made it an
identify marker of the area.
