India is fast climbing popularity charts on the world tourist map. The incredible diversity of this nation is apparent in its geographical disparity, multi-linguist populace, cultural mix and religious tolerance. When it comes to tours to India, the names of Rajasthan, Kerala and Goa are quite hit with local and international travelers alike. This blog post will highlight the tourism prospects in the aforementioned three destinations.
Rajasthan
Studded with royal lineage of Rajputana rulers, Rajasthan is largely visited by those tourists who loves to live life king size. Various forts and palaces that dot the length and breadth of this largest Indian state have been converted into heritage hotels by premium hotel chains such as Taj and Welcome Heritage. Besides basking in the royalty, tourists can benefit cultural interactions by meeting and interacting local tribes of this region. India’s first luxury tourist train, Palace on Wheels offers weeklong excursion to erstwhile princely states in Rajasthan in an unparallel opulence.
Goa
Goa is probably the most loved and globally acclaimed tourist destination of India with an annual influx of 2 million domestic and international tourists every year. The amazing stupor, laid back ambience, thrilling nightlife and luxurious beach resorts adds to the budding popularity of Goa as a cosmopolitan beach destination. For those interested in heritage excursion, the churches and cathedrals of Old Goa and Portuguese style mansions are the best places to head to.
Kerala
Fondly known as ‘God’s Own Country’, Kerala is listed as ’50 must destination to visit’ by National Geographic Traveler magazine. While backwaters of Alleppey and Kumarakom are considered the backbone of tourism in this state, the Ayurvedic resorts of Kovalam beach offers a relaxing retreat to the guests. Nothing can be as romantic as savoring a candle light dinner on the Kettuvalam boat with star studded sky adding to the romance.
The above mentioned destinations are by far the most frequented tourist destinations in India. The popularity peak they have conquered over the period of time is exceptional and the hospitality industry is making perpetual efforts to cash in on their popularity.
