LALITPUR: The Patan Museum has raised the entry fee effective from today after the Lalitpur sub-metropolis increased the charge for tourists entering the Patan Durbar Square.
With the increase, the entry fee charged to a tourist from the SAARC countries has reached to Rs. 150 from Rs. 75, while a tourist from other countries has to pay Rs. 500, which was only Rs. 200 earlier.
However, Patan Museum Chief Suresh Man is concerned over the possible decline in the number of tourists visiting the museum with the rise in entry fee by the sub-metropolis.
There are around 3,200 wooden and metal statues in the museum.
The museum has also been operating e-library for the convenience of visitors.

as a frequent return visitor to nepal,does no one seem to understand that people do not have for ever increases in their personal income for this to be affordable.Figures for increase in tourist numbers over the last 2 years show considerable increases,but overall no increase in the money they spent.Does that not tell these incompetent idiots who run Nepal something john mayall, uk
