As part of World Tourism Day celebrations, PATA Nepal Chapter launched a promotional video to announce the 4th<\/sup> Himalayan Travel Mart (HTM) to be held in Nepal from 6 to 9 June 2023. PATA Nepal Chapter organised three highly successful editions of HTM in 2017, 2018 and 2019, before the global Covid-19 pandemic shut down tourism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the World Tourism Day event, the chapter posthumously bestowed the prestigious PATA Lifetime Achievement Award on the late Joti Lai Khanna, founder of Yeti Travels, “with great respect, honour and heartfelt appreciation for his invaluable contribution to the association, and his lifelong dedication of more than 45 Years promoting tourism in Nepal.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The chapter also presented the \u2018PATA Personality of the Year 2021 Award\u2019<\/em> to Deepak Raj Joshi in recognition of his \u201cadvocacy, engagement, and tireless contributions toward the promotion, sustainable development, and revival of Nepal’s tourism sector during the global Covid-19 pandemic.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
