June 29: Although the number of tourists visiting Nepal reduced drastically in 2020, their length of stay has increased to some extent. According to the government data, tourist arrivals shrunk to 230,000 in 2020 from more than 1 million a year ago, while their stay increased by 19 percent during the review period as compared to 2019.
The average stay of a tourist in Nepal is 12 days. In 2020, it increased by 19 percent and reached 15.1 days. According to Nepal Tourism Statistics-2020, the stay of tourists in Nepal has reached 15 days for the first time.
The Ministry of Culture, Tourism, and Civil Aviation on Monday released the Nepal Tourism Statistics-2020. According to the same statistics, the length of stay of tourists has increased.
The year 2019 marked the highest number of tourist arrival in Nepal with record of 1.197 million foreign visitors in Nepal. Despite the significant number of tourists, the average stay was just 12 days, as in previous years. However, the average length of stay of tourists has increased in 2020, even though the number of arrival has decreased due to coronavirus.
The ministry estimates that the length of tourists’ stay may have increased due to coronavirus in 2020. Most of the tourism-related activities were not open last year due to the outbreak of Covid-19 and lockdown. However, businessmen say that their length of stay has been extended this year as tourists have come to Nepal only for trekking and mountaineering. Even under normal circumstances, the stay of tourists for trekking and mountaineering is longer than average.
Vinayak Shah, vice-president of the Hotel Association of Nepal (HAN), argues that the number of foreigners who came to Nepal in 2020 was only for trekking and mountaineering. "The princes of Qatar and Bahrain have been staying for a long time," he said.
In 2020, foreign tourists came to Nepal for trekking and mountaineering while they were stopped from coming to Nepal for other activities.
He argues that the current stay period does not guarantee that the tourists’ length of stay will such long in the days to come. Entrepreneurs say that it is not fixed if this period will remain the same or decrease in the coming days.
According to the statistics, the purpose of visiting Nepal in 2020 has not changed. Foreign tourists come to Nepal for trekking, mountaineering, pilgrimage and holiday celebrations.
Out of them, 60.5 percent of the foreign tourists visiting Nepal this year are for holidays, 12.4 percent for adventure tourism like mountaineering and trekking and 15.6 percent for visiting religious places, and 11.5 percent for other activities.

'content' => '<p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:Cambria"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman"">June 29: Although the number of tourists visiting Nepal reduced drastically in 2020, their length of stay has increased to some extent. According to the government data, tourist arrivals shrunk to 230,000 in 2020 from more than 1 million a year ago, while their stay increased by 19 percent during the review period as compared to 2019.</span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:Cambria"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman"">The average stay of a tourist in Nepal is 12 days. In 2020, it increased by 19 percent and reached 15.1 days. According to Nepal Tourism Statistics-2020, the stay of tourists in Nepal has reached 15 days for the first time.</span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:Cambria"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman"">The Ministry of Culture, Tourism, and Civil Aviation on Monday released the Nepal Tourism Statistics-2020. According to the same statistics, the length of stay of tourists has increased.</span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:Cambria"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman"">The year 2019 marked the highest number of tourist arrival in Nepal with record of 1.197 million foreign visitors in Nepal. Despite the significant number of tourists, the average stay was just 12 days, as in previous years. However, the average length of stay of tourists has increased in 2020, even though the number of arrival has decreased due to coronavirus.</span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:Cambria"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman"">The ministry estimates that the length of tourists’ stay may have increased due to coronavirus in 2020. Most of the tourism-related activities were not open last year due to the outbreak of Covid-19 and lockdown. However, businessmen say that their length of stay has been extended this year as tourists have come to Nepal only for trekking and mountaineering. Even under normal circumstances, the stay of tourists for trekking and mountaineering is longer than average.</span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:Cambria"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman"">Vinayak Shah, vice-president of the Hotel Association of Nepal (HAN), argues that the number of foreigners who came to Nepal in 2020 was only for trekking and mountaineering. "The princes of Qatar and Bahrain have been staying for a long time," he said.</span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:Cambria"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman"">In 2020, foreign tourists came to Nepal for trekking and mountaineering while they were stopped from coming to Nepal for other activities.</span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:Cambria"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman"">He argues that the current stay period does not guarantee that the tourists’ length of stay will such long in the days to come. Entrepreneurs say that it is not fixed if this period will remain the same or decrease in the coming days.</span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:Cambria"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman"">According to the statistics, the purpose of visiting Nepal in 2020 has not changed. Foreign tourists come to Nepal for trekking, mountaineering, pilgrimage and holiday celebrations.</span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:Cambria"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman"">Out of them, 60.5 percent of the foreign tourists visiting Nepal this year are for holidays, 12.4 percent for adventure tourism like mountaineering and trekking and 15.6 percent for visiting religious places, and 11.5 percent for other activities.</span></span></span></p>
