In order to promote Nepal's cultural sites and natural scenery, the Nepal Ministry of Tourism, Nepal Tourism Board, and International Photography Association jointly organized a photography competition and a series of field trips to Nepal.

A group of photographers from Zibo, Shandong recently attended an eight-day photography collection and experienced Nepal's picturesque landscapes, unique customs, and vibrant culture up close.

During their journey, they captured numerous historic buildings in the country, richly-colored cities and villages, and people's daily lives.

"Photography serves as a bridge for cultural exchange and friendship. Our trip to Nepal not only allowed us to capture countless unforgettable moments, but also engraved in our hearts the friendly and kind people of this country," said Wang Yangang, chairman of the Boshan district photographers' association.

Nepal is a landlocked country with a long history and a rich culture. Various architectural styles left by historical dynasties are scattered throughout the country, and many ancient buildings in Nepal's capital Katmandu have long been designated as protected sites by UNESCO. Nepal also has many places that attract tourists and photography enthusiasts from around the world, offering experiences they will never forget.
