Himachal Village

The benefits of tourism into rural areas, the state has launched a novel scheme ‘Har Gaon Ki Kahani’ which involves not just improving tourism infrastructure but assimilating folklore that is centred around local gods and goddess.Visitors would be apprised with the history of village, its culture, the delicacies, customs and traditions through a document containing all the valuable information of the villages



people from all parts of the world. Like a doting mother, Himachal has embraced one and all irrespective of their shortcomings and disregard to the very ecosystem that supports them. Scenic hill-stations have now become major commercial centers and are visited by lakhs of tourists every year, thereby, putting immense pressure on their fragile and ever depleting ecosystem. Since tourism is one of the main sources of revenue generation for people of Himachal, it is essential that tourism should be promoted in a way that it preserves the natural ecosystem and propagates principle of self-sustainable growth
