DAMAULI, APRIL 11
A street food festival is being organised at Bandipur of Tanahun on the occasion of Nepali New Year.
Bandipur Tourism Development Committee Regional Hotel Entrepreneurs Association, Bandipur, and Tanahun Chamber of Commerce and Industry, are jointly organising the street food festival.
The three-day event will begin from April 13, said Chairperson of the Bandipur Tourism Development Committee, Kisan Pradhan.
He further said that the street festival was going to be organised with the objective of bringing in more tourists to Bandipur while welcoming the Nepali New Year.
Pradhan said, "Programmes were not conducted in the new year for the past few years due to COVID-19.
Now, we are organising the street food festival along with musical programme this new year as infection rate of COVID-19 has declined. We believe that this programme will attract more tourists to Bandipur."
There are 77 hotels associated with Hotel Association Nepal in operation in Bandipur. Bandipur used to attract a large number of domestic and international tourists before the COV- ID pandemic.
