Answer:
India a thrilling destination
Tourism potential is immense in India. Our country is a country of diversity of climate, physical features, peoples, ethnicities, religions, languages, cultures, etc. Nearly every region in our vast and varied land has breathtaking natural beauty and enchanting flora and fauna. Tigers and Dolphins, Elephants and Pheasants, majestic Deodar and Orchids all are part of the enchantment of this land. Kaziranga, the wild life sanctuary in Assam, is home of the rare one horned rhino. Arunachal Pradesh had monasteries like Tawang as impressive as Ladakh and like Sikkim which could boast of Pemyengtse and Tashiding attracted a lot of tourists interested in Buddhism.
Each state and region has its own uniqueness. Foreign and local tourists love this diversity of colour, food, culture, climate, etc. Song and dance and colourful festivals and dazzling handicrafts too cast their spell on tourists both domestic and foreign. Exotic beaches of Goa, backwaters of Kerala, snow-clad mountains of Himachal, sands and lakes of Rajasthan, world heritage sites of Delhi, etc. are the symbols of diversity of our nation.
This colourful diversity makes our country a major attraction of tourists that is beneficial for the economy and prosperity of the country. We not only have to provide the best of facilities and safety to foreign tourists, but also to maintain a peaceful and amiable coexistence of people belonging to different ethnicities and cultures.
All the above attractions can be enjoyed at a very nominal rate by the tourists; hence they find visiting India quite thrilling.
