Nepal featured in The World
The World is a radio production of Public Radio International and everyday, it features a “geo quiz” which poses a question about a location in the world and information about the answer. Today’s question, to my pleasant surprise, was about a “royal park…at the foot of the Himalayas,” “Nepal’s oldest national park.” It was a very short segment but amidst the disheartening lack of coverage of news from Nepal in this part of the world, even a short piece about Nepal’s natural heritage was refreshing to listen to.
This Geo Quiz page has the question. You can also find out the answer and listen to an audio postcard from Nepal, recorded by Australian sound engineer Greg Simmons.
