Tikapur Park — Attraction in Tikapur

Tikapur Park, one of the biggest and beautiful parks in western Nepal Situated at Tikapur Municipality of Kailali District. It was built by King Mahendra. During that time his health condition was very poor, due to heart disease and Doctor too asked him to rest. But despite of his health he kept on the work of building it. After it was built positive changes were seen in his health because of its fresh and good environment. So therefore this Tikapur Park is now known as "The Rest Place of King Mahendra Tikapur Park" which brought about a great change in his health very drastically. These days Tikapur Park has been an area of tourists, entertainments and recreations. A very mass of people from in and outside of the country come to visit this place for their soul peace and satisfaction with its pleasant and cool environment.

A few of the beautiful grounds in the park has now turned into spots for driving classes," the local guy explained.

In my observation, the park is still a good place for family outing...

attraction where King Mahendra and Tribhuwan

Chaudari case, where a child died under mysterious

circumstances, and there's an idol related to the

incident that locals are hesitant to discuss. The
