Tiivistelmä
Religious tourism is one of the main contributors to the Nepalese tourism industry. It has not only generated thousands of jobs but also has been one of the main media to promote Nepalese culture, lifestyle and traditions. At the same time, it has grown as a strong contributor to the Nepalese economy. The main aim of this thesis was to point out the impact of religious tourism on the Nepalese economy, to find out the main factors affecting religious tourism and to get views of people about the religious tourism.
The research for this thesis was done through collecting secondary data from various sources and by collecting primary data through online questionnaire survey. A survey website was used as a tool to collect the primary data while all the respondents were approached through social media.
The research pointed out the impact of the religious tourism on the Nepalese economy. Furthermore, the primary data collection results showed travelers’ view about a religious trip. The amount of money we can expect from the random religious travelers and the services they look for are some key findings.
