This will be Prachanda''s first foreign tour as Prime Minister.
Chinese ambassador to Nepal Zheng Xiangling had met him on Sunday and invited him to visit China to attend the concluding ceremony of the Olympic Games.
Nepal could not send its top state representative to Olympic opening ceremony due to political stalemate.
