INTRODUCTION
The name India comes from the word
Indus, which has been derived from
the Persian word for Hindu, from
Sanskrit word Sindhu.
Now India is popularly know as
Bharat and also Hindustan
Since ancient times, India has been
known for its culture, heritage, and
tradition.
CULTURAL TOURISM
Culture, has been defined as the whole complex of
distinctive spiritual, intellectual, & emotional
features that characterize a society or social
group. It includes not only the arts and letters,
but also modes of life, the fundamental rights of
a human being, value systems, traditions and
beliefs.
Tourism is the activities of persons traveling to and
staying in places outside their usual environment for
not more than one consecutive year for leisure,
business and other purposes not related to the exercise
of an activity remunerated from within the place
visited.
Preservation of National Heritage and Environment: Tourism helps preserve several places
which are of historical importance by declaring them as heritage sites. For instance, the Taj Mahal,
the Qutab Minar, Ajanta and Ellora temples, etc, would have been decayed and destroyed had it not
been for the efforts taken by Tourism Department to preserve them.
Depletion of Local resources: Tourism can create great pressure on local resources like energy,
food, and other raw materials that may already be in short supply.

CONCLUSION
For all foreign tourists, any visit to India is a form
of cultural tourism. There are however those
with more explicit interests in the monumental
heritage, the religious heritage, the natural
heritage, traditional arts and crafts, music and
dance and those help in formulation its scope.
Tourism industry in India is growing and it has
vast potential for generating employment and
earning large amount of foreign exchange
besides giving a fillip to the countrys overall
economic and social development.
