Indian Tourist Arrivals Surge in Chitwan Despite Summer Heat

Despite the peak summer heat, tourist arrivals in Chitwan, Nepal, have seen a significant increase, primarily driven by visitors from the Indian states of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. Hotel operators in Sauraha, a popular gateway to Chitwan National Park, report heightened activity. This surge in Indian tourism is contributing to a sharp rise in arrivals at the national park. The trend suggests that the summer season, often considered off-peak, is experiencing a revival due to specific regional travel patterns. The influx of visitors is expected to boost the local economy and tourism sector in Chitwan.
