Rukum District((ネパール語:रुकुम जिल्ला), is a "hill" and "mountain" district some 280 km west of Kathmandu in Rapti Zone of Nepal's Mid-Western Region. Rukum covers an area of 2,877 km² with population of 188,438 in 2001 and 207,290 in 2011. Musikot (also called Jhumlikhalanga) is the district's administrative center. Rukum district has many potential tourist attractions that remain unexplored. There is Mt. Sisne ((ネパール語:सिस्ने हिमाल)), the westernmost high peak in the Dhaulagiri massif. Sisne is also called virgin mountain, Hiunchuli Patan and Murkatta Himal. It was unclimbed until a Nepalese expedition led by Man Bahadur Khatri reached the summit in May 2013. Rukum is also called "the place of 52 lakes and 53 hills". Rukumkot () has a beautiful pond called ''Rukmini Tal'' or locally ''Kamal Dhaha''. Nearby are notable temples called ''Barah'' and ''Sibalaya'', and caves such as ''Deurali Cave''. == Geography and Climate== Rukum district is the northernmost part of Rapti Zone. It is in the basin of Bheri River, a major tributary of the Karnali. Most of Rukum is drained by west-flowing tributaries such as ''Uttar Ganga'' draining Dhorpatan Valley and to the north of that the ''Sani Bheri'' draining southern slopes of the western Dhaulagiri Himalaya. Elevation ranges from below 800 meters along the Bheri and its lowest tributaries to about 6,000 meters in the Dhaulagiris with a range of climates from tropical to perpetual snow and ice. Agricultural use ranges from irrigated rice cultivation through upland cultivation of maize, barley, wheat, potatoes and fruit, to sub-alpine and alpine pasturage reaching about 4,500 meters. ==Population by Census 1971-2011〔#〕〔#〕== Colors= id:lightgrey value:gray(0.9) id:darkgrey value:gray(0.8) id:sfondo value:rgb(1,1,1) id:barra value:rgb(0.6,0.7,0.8) ImageSize = width:350 height:303 PlotArea = left:50 bottom:50 top:30 right:30 DateFormat = x.y Period = from:0 till:250000 TimeAxis = orientation:vertical AlignBars = justify ScaleMajor = gridcolor:darkgrey increment:50000 start:0 ScaleMinor = gridcolor:lightgrey increment:1000 start:0 BackgroundColors = canvas:sfondo BarData= bar:1971 text:1971 bar:1981 text:1981 bar:1991 text:1991 bar:2001 text:2001 bar:2011 text:2011 PlotData= color:barra width:20 align:left bar:1971 from: 0 till:96243 bar:1981 from: 0 till:132432 bar:1991 from: 0 till:153554 bar:2001 from: 0 till:188438 bar:2011 from: 0 till:207290 PlotData= bar:1971 at:96243 fontsize:XS text:96,243 shift:(-14,5) bar:1981 at:132432 fontsize:XS text:132,432 shift:(-14,5) bar:1991 at:153554 fontsize:XS text:153,554 shift:(-14,5) bar:2001 at:188438 fontsize:XS text:188,438 shift:(-14,5) bar:2011 at:207290 fontsize:XS text:207,290 shift:(-14,5) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rukum District」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
