Tinkune Park

It was good field to play cricket and peoples came to rest and free mind.

The Kathmandu Metropolitan City had put up a grassy berm decorated with flowers and plants around the perimeter of the Tinkune plot near the Kathmandu airport to hide the unsightly barren ground from the view of visiting Chinese President Xi Jinping in the second week of October in 2019. The City had spent Rs6.5 million on the beautification of Tinkune, a triangular plot of land with roads on all sides.

The Kathmandu Metropolitan City has decided to build a temporary park in Tinkune after its earlier attempt to construct a permanent park with the statue of Buddha failed to materialise.

The KMC has removed the corrugated zinc sheets that were installed to fence the area in 2014 in view of the 18th Saarc Summit.
The KMC’s earlier plan of building a green park in the area had hit a snag after failed negotiations with land owners regarding compensation.
“We will come up with a new plan to build bigger and attractive infrastructure after we sort out the issues related to compensation. But for now we will build a temporary park there,” said Ishwor Poudel, chief and executive officer of the KMC.

The KMC will spend around Rs 6 million to build the park, said Gyanendra Karki, spokesperson for the metropolis.

A little over 50 ropanis of land in Tinkune—on the way to the airport—has remained unused for the last two decades for various reasons and was being used to park trucks and buses. It also used to serve as a place for many to practise driving.

Last year, Rudra Singh Tamang, former chief and executive officer of the KMC, had come up with an ambitious plan of constructing a 16-metre tall Buddha statue in the space and announced an outlay of Rs 1.2 billion for the project. But it was not the first time a park was being planned in the area. In 2012, the Ministry of Federal Affairs and Local Development had allocated Rs 10 million to build a park there. The compensation issue over the land has been going on for years. According to KMC officials, over Rs 100 million has been disbursed for 21 ropanis of land.

The government had acquired the land in 1976 with a promise to compensate the owners.

The process to hand over compensation, however, started only in 2005, but by that time the price of land in the Capital had already sky-rocketed, which led to disputes over the compensation amount.

Always crowded but good for time pass.

Actually, the place is nice. But Tinkune park area (within) should be cleaned for sanitation purpose especially for people outing and playing there.

Park should be maintained it will be the great place for all if government will make play ground for kids football ground basketball ground and put all necessary equipment huge space for all the things.

Wonderful but government must have to manage little as day by day its beauty is decreasing with pollution
You can rest ,play or have chatpat there

Well nicely informed

It's the place that which is under fabrication. But, due to the neglegance of mayor of this region the work has been for more than 3-4 year.
People near this park are really awesome, They use the field to fulfill their accomodities like playing cricket, volleyball, and football. Many of the bus drivers park their vehicle in the park for free.

This a not a great park though government make a weak attempt to promote into a park. Recently government is trying to making it look green from outside planting some trees around. Kathmandu has lost its charm because it has become a concrete Jungle. temperature is roaring we need green we need park. Tinkune park can be turned to a lovely park.

Best place for morning and evening walk
Can experience the cricket, football and volleyball in the day time and also it lies ib the middle of tinkune area which makes the location suitable for all valley people
