History of National Tourism Day
According to Chief Seattle, we should take memories from the place we travel or the moment we live and leave only footprints that the place we visited will remind you forever of such a beautiful thought. Later in 1948, the people formed a traffic tourist committee to promote its motive and aim of how tourism makes a positive impact on the economy. To date, the first three offices were opened in Delhi and Mumbai. Later its expansion took place in Kolkata and Chennai in 1951. An initiative of the government at the level was great; they elected the department of tourism under the Ministry of tourism and communication in 1958 under Deputy General.
The language barrier is bridged by tourism as we move from familiar culture to unfamiliar one; unfortunately, it's difficult to understand their way of telling things. This aids people to learn new things in a better way. It could be language, culture or way of living, anything. Everyone would not know this day is celebrated at the national level and international level. World tourism day is celebrated on 27th September, which is different from national tourism day.
