BHAKTAPUR, Dec 23: The Nepal-Korea Friendship Park in Thimi has turned into dumping site now.



It has been the waste throwing site in the absence of the protection of well-facilitated park constructed by the Korean government in five ropanies of land.[break]



Among the structures constructed int he park were a pond with the shape of Nepal map, well-rounded toilet, tape, rest room, table tennis, badminton, volleyball court, chairs and garden of fruits.



The park has turned to the dumping site due to the lack of protection after Korea handed over the park surrounded by big pond and gate to Kamerotar land integration project in 2007.



The wall and gate of the park have been dismantled and the foundation has been the play ground for kids.



The Nepal-shaped pond has been used as a waste disposal site while swing made for children has been broken.



The two rest houses were put on fire in 2009; physical properties within the park have been stolen and toilets collapsed.



The park has been facing a very miserable condition due to the lack of protection efforts by the project and Thimi municipality, complained locals.
