Annapurna Rural Municipality has successfully completed the development of an ICT-friendly tourist information system, which forms a critical component of its broader Tourist Information Centre project. This initiative, implemented under the latest Partnership Fund of the Gandaki State Government, aims to benefit tourists by centralizing comprehensive information about the municipality’s attractions and managing this data efficiently. The system integrates various elements such as a tourist information center, an information portal, and other resources, all centralized in a single, authentic platform.
This innovative approach uses advanced technology to consolidate all tourism-related information in one place. The goal is to provide accurate and reliable information to both domestic and international tourists, as well as other stakeholders.
Executed in two phases, the first phase focused on gathering information from various sources and integrating it into the system. The second phase enhanced the provided information using advanced technologies such as Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR). This successful completion makes Annapurna Rural Municipality one of the pioneers at the local level in Nepal to implement such a comprehensive and innovative tourist information system.
