A photography exhibition that features the winning entries from the Global IME Nepal Photo Competition held in the Capital in July, 2016, is currently ongoing in Bhairahawa.

The exhibit features a total of 120 photographs under seven different categories—Culture and Tourism, Wildlife and Nature, Daily Life, News Photo, Nepal Smiles, Sports and Adventure Photo Story. 

The photos were selected from around 8000 pictures submitted for the competition, which was organised by Nepal Photo Journalists’ Club. 

Speaking about the exhibit, chairperson of the Siddhartha Hotel Association as well as the local organiser, Chandra Prakash Shrestha, said, “These kinds of 

exhibitions provide opportunities for people to see various aspects of our society through the photographers’ lens.” 

Likewise, Chairperson of Rupendehi Cricket Association, Prashant Bikram Malla, said, “This exhibit will help us to promote different touristic destinations in the country since it has a category focusing just on tourism of Nepal.” 

The exhibit is being organised by the Photo Journalists’ Club at the National Tourism Promotion and Agriculture and Industrial Fair in association with Siddhartha Hotel Association and Rupendehi Cricket Association.

The exhibit ends today.
