However, the park has welcomed a total of 50,360 tourists so far this fiscal year, failing to match the nearly 56,000 visitors recorded in the previous fiscal period. Of the current year&#8217;s arrivals, 39,011 were domestic travelers, 10,561 arrived from third countries, and 788 originated from SAARC nations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This downturn in foot traffic has directly impacted the park\u2019s financial landscape. Information Officer Ganesh Prasad Tiwari confirmed that revenue collections from entry fees and park permits currently stand at Rs 42.8 million so far this year, down from the Rs 57.7 million generated during the last fiscal year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The drop poses immediate challenges for the region, as the revenue generated from tourism is traditionally heavily utilized to fund essential park protection programs, local biodiversity management, and sustainable livelihood support initiatives for community buffer zones.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>File-Photo July 6, Kathmandu: Tourist arrivals in the Langtang National Park have seen a notable decline during the current fiscal year compared to the previous year, causing a corresponding drop in overall revenue collection, according to the latest data provided by the park administration.
