1.4.5.2 Guesthouses in National Park Areas
These lodgings are under the administration of the Royal Forestry Department and are located in every national park. Staff houses of some national parks are also used as guest-houses, and there are tents and camping facilities, as well. These types of lodging are appropriate and can be arranged easily into eco-lodges. However, most of them have not reached the appropriate standard of management required for ecotourism. Apart from the national parks, the Royal Forestry Department also provides lodgings in various conservation areas, including several research and experimental stations which do not currently offer services to tourists (Figure 1.5).
