Tamil Nadu Tourism focus on Attracting Foreign Tourists

The entire world is working to revive tourism following the COVID-19 pandemic and as travel around the world gains momentum, India again welcomes overseas tourists.

Tamil Nadu, among all other states in India, is receiving an increasing amount of positive interest from tourists from abroad.

The state has attracted interest from countries such as Australia, Newzealand, and Brazil. Prior to this, the majority of foreign visitors to Tamil Nadu were from countries such as France, Spain, Singapore, Malaysia, Germany, Italy, the UK, and the US.

What is it that draws foreigners the most?

In the situation of Tamil Nadu, it’s spiritual and cultural tourism that attracts lots of attention from foreigners. Places like Puducherry, Chennai, Mahabalipuram, Rameshwaram, and Madurai are hot spots for spiritual and cultural tourism as well as heritage.

The state tourism department is striving to bring the tourism of wildlife into focus in addition to spiritual and heritage tourism.

There are 9 national parks within Tamil NaduMudumalai National Park, Anamalai Tiger Reserve, Mukurthi National Park, Guindy National Park, Gulf of Mannar Marine National Park, Vedanthangal Bird Sanctuary, Karikili Bird Sanctuary, Kalakad Wildlife Sanctuary as well as Agasthyamalai Biosphere Reserve.

With the exception of a few parks, all of them have fewer visitors. Making them more visible could be a major game-changer.

The upcoming 44th Chess Olympiad, which will host attendees from over 150 countries could be an excellent chance to promote different tourist destinations located in Tamil Nadu. Hotels with special deals, international fairs as well as encouraging rural tourism are excellent initiatives according to officials of the tourism department.
