Friends of Indian Tourism
Friends of Indian Tourism is a community that aims to create awareness about the huge potential for tourism in India, and yet, why India attracts a very modest percentage of the world's tourist arrivals every year, and some things that YOU can do to help it. Not the least because, the tourism industry in India can generate millions of jobs...if only you can help...

Few countries in the world will give the thirsty tourist the veritable larger-than-life experience that India can. To most who have never been to India, the mention of India conjures up images of mystic charm, magical sprituality and a billion people. You need to scratch a little deeper into the surface to begin to see what India really is:

To the painter in you, a canvas of incomparable scenic beauty,

To the romantic in you, a people of unfathomable cultural diversity,

To the artist in you, an opera of a hundred brilliant art-forms,

To the historian in you, a legacy of an unbelievable history,

To the philosopher in you, a fountainhead of eternal learning,

To the photographer in you, a landscape of a thousand glorious sunsets,

To the gourmet in you, an assortment of delicious cuisines,

To the adventurer in you, an escape of unbridled excitement,

To the architect in you, a land of a myriad magnificent monuments,

To the optimist in you, a confluence of a billion dreams,

To the pessimist in you, a melee of bewildering contradictions,

To the hedonist in you, an indulgence of a life-time,

and

To the tourist in you, a journey you want to begin all over again.
