The Kathmandu Metropolitan City is advancing the construction of a multipurpose playground at Khulamanch in Kathmandu. Workers are seen preparing the grounds, transporting sand with wheelbarrows, and using heavy machinery to level the area.

According to officials, the new playground will feature Bermuda grass, which has been selected for its durability under intense sunlight and drought conditions and its ability to withstand heavy use.
