Tourism Circuits in Central India

Tourism benefits a place by generation of employment, development of infrastructure and by bringing foreign currency. Over 20 million people work in India's tourism industry. India is rich in Religious Heritage Tourism. Travelling for pilgrimage had been part of Indian traditions. Religious truism in India is one of the most preferred tourism because of its social and cultural customs (Especially in Hindu Religion). The tourism originated with religious reasons also encompasses other types of tourism in it. Linking tourism with heritage and culture can do more for local economies than promoting them separately. That’s the core idea in cultural heritage tourism: save your heritage and your culture, share it with visitors, and reap the economic benefits of tourism. In this book development of religious heritage tourism is discussed for three states as a case study. Selected states are from central part of India. This study gives insight to holistic development of Religious Heritage tourism in any state.
