Elephant polo tour is the rare and the world's unique sport and only of its kind in Nepal. The World Elephant Polo Association (WEPA) organizes an annual Elephant polo tournament in the airfield of Meghauli Chitwan, south west of Kathmandu in Nepal.

The World Elephant Polo Association (WEPA) was established in 1982 having it’s headquartering at the Tiger Tops Jungle Lodge in Chitwan, Nepal. WEPA has also established the governing rules for the Elephant Polo Tournament. Somehow, Elephant polo is similar to the Horse polo but a little bit difference. It is an exciting game, like polo but with longer sticks, this is quite possibly the biggest sport in the world. The game is played by four players of each team on a marked pitch 140 x 70 meters, using a standard size polo ball and consists of two 10-minute chukkers of playing time, with an interval of 15 minutes. The whistle blown by the referee stopsand starts play. The pitch is marked with a centre line, a circle with a radius of 15 meters in the centre of the field, and a semi-circle with a radius of 30 meters measured from the centre of the goal line at either end of the pitch. Elephants and ends are changed at half time. Teams participate from all over the world including Scotland, Thailand, England and Hong Kong. The local favorites, the Tiger Tops Tuskers, also take a part. After the day's play all the players and guests have dinner in the Golghar, a traditional around house with a great bar.
