Overview

The historic Rainaskot in Lamjung district is now becoming famous as a tourism destination with the launching of the homestay service . The homestay service at this place with historical and religious importance has been revived with the reconstruction of the houses of the local people that were damaged by the April 25 Gorkha Earthquake in 2015 . The reconstruction was carried out with the special support of an American social worker Natasha Wozniak. Fourteen houses including a community building were reconstructed with Wozniak’s support at Rainaskot . The reconstruction was carried out at a total cost of Rs 35 million of which 27.5 million was provided by Wozniak.

The locals have started providing home stay service to visitors after their houses were rebuilt. Homestay facility is now available at 13 homes in Rainaskot which can accommodate up to 84 guests.
