Peace sanctuary


Tourists look for tigers as elephants wade through tall grass at the Royal Chitwan National Park on Tuesday. Although the numbers of safari tourists are still sluggish, the tourism industry is elated by a surge in arrivals of trekkers. The three-month ceasefire has helped. The Everest region is full of European trekkers and flights to Lukla can barely cope. Manang would be a lot fuller if there were more flights. Indian pilgrims are flocking to Muktinath and Upper Mustang is seeing more groups. Even Pokhara is picking up from a year-long slump.
