Each of these sanctuaries holds unique natural and wildlife attractions

This holistic approach ensures that the natural beauty and biodiversity of these areas are preserved for future generations.

Tourism Potential and Infrastructure Improvement

A significant part of the plan is dedicated to analyzing and improving the tourism infrastructure in these zones. This includes assessing the current state of significant tourist destinations, availability of facilities, tourism statistics, environmental challenges, and identifying potential new tourism sites. The aim is to increase tourism footfall while preserving the heritage and ecological integrity of these sites.

Rajasthan's initiative reflects a growing trend towards eco-tourism, where the natural environment and local communities benefit from sustainable and responsible travel. The plan also considers the historical significance and heritage value of potential tourist destinations, ensuring that the tourism development is culturally sensitive and enriching.
