Too Much Room at the Inn?

نویسنده

  • Myra Shackley
چکیده

The rich built heritage of the Himalayas has great but currently under-exploited tourism potential. Nowhere is this seen more clearly than in the Tibetan kingdom of Lc (Upper Mustang) with its intact network of medieval inns. Despite local pressure for a distinctive heritage tourism product based around upgraded inns, conventional tent-based trekking tourism still predominates. Alternatives include the construction of new trekking lodges or alteration of existing vernacular buildings. Either development would lessen the perceived authenticity of the tourist experience and diminish Lc’s attractiveness. This article discusses the potential for inn development and a pilot scheme to record both inns and other features of LG’s built heritage within the general context of built heritage conservation in the Himalayas.

The high sensitivity of InN under rare earth ion implantation at medium range energy

In this work, the damage formation in InN layers has been investigated subsequent to europium implantation at 300 keV and room temperature. The layers of several microns were produced by Hydride Vapour Phase Epitaxy and used as matrices for ion implantation experiments due to their good crystalline quality. From this investigation, it is shown that InN exhibits a low stability under rare earth ...

اثر کاهش رطوبت بر کیفیت رطب مضافتی

Dehydration of Mazafati Rutab is a method to prevent its spoilage. Dehydration is necessary for Mazafati Rutab because it contains too much moisture. If the moisture content of Mazafati Rutab is decreased properly, it need not be stored under refrigeration. The present study was carried out in an attempt to decrease the moisture content in order to increase the shelf life of Mazafati dates. Sam...

High-quality InN films on GaN using graded InGaN buffers by MBE

The growth of high-quality thick InN films is challenging because of the lack of native substrates. In this work, we demonstrate the use of a linearly graded InGaN buffer layer for the growth of InN films on GaN substrates. A 500nm InN film with <0.1 nm RMS roughness is obtained with a peak mobility of 1410 cm2/(V&s) at 300K. A strong room temperature photoluminescence showing a bandgap of 0.65...
