In short

  • The Nepal Tourism Board is placing traditional swings at key tourist spots for Dashain.
  • The project connects the country's cultural festivals and heritage with tourism promotion.
  • Installations are planned in the Kathmandu Valley alongside local governments and tourism groups.

Traditional swings, known as linge ping, are being established at various visitor locations across the nation to coincide with the Dashain festival. Officials stated that the effort is designed to integrate local cultural celebrations and heritage directly into the wider tourism promotion strategy across the country. The project is being handled by the tourism heritage and development division within the organisation. To implement the plan, this division is working alongside local government bodies and sector-specific associations, with installations planned inside the Kathmandu Valley and other prominent tourist spots. The board intends to use these installations to link seasonal festivities directly with visitor experiences. Collaborating organisations span municipal bodies and regional committees to ensure the cultural displays reach travellers visiting different popular destinations during the holiday period.
