Dhakal stressed that this collaboration would harness the combined experience and expertise of both companies for the successful execution of the project.

    Creating a World-Class Theme Park:

    In its initial phase, the project aims to establish a large-scale theme park, inspired by the grandeur of Shanghai Disneyland and Singapore’s Sentosa Island. Dhakal revealed that preliminary groundwork for the theme park’s construction has already begun. Due to its substantial space requirements, the park is likely to be located outside Kathmandu, with Chitwan being considered as a potential site.
