Summary

Here Taranath Sharma, a travel enthusiast along with a nature lover, recounts his trip to Dadeldhura, in Far West Nepal, the region located in the Far West which although far-flung and little bit off the beaten path is gifted with natures excellence. He writes of the area's unique beauty, and its neglect.

Beautiful spots like Ghanghasya have been ignored, with central easy-to-reach spots highlighted and popularised. The author states his disapproval for this lop-sided design.

He does so here by punctuating his account with the difficulties - and pleasures - of the journey, enabling the reader to gain a sense of what it is really like to travel through these harsh, underdeveloped lands.

Ghanghasya is an example of huge tourism potential going unexplored due to lack of infrastructure and support, Sharma says. He says that unless the government invests in promoting and creating these spaces, the larger aim of national prosperity also cannot be realized.
