Lumbini and Tourism Development
From Secretary General U Thant’s visit to the Lumbini Master Plan, UNDP has supported Nepal’s cultural heritage and its global significance. Tourism in Lumbini continues to fuel local economies while preserving identity and tradition.
By linking heritage with development, UNDP’s work highlights how culture can drive pride and progress—pointing toward a future of sustainable tourism that balances faith, community, and growth.
