Tourism in India

India is a country with diversity, thanks to its multicultural experiences. Extending from the snow-covered Himalayan heights to the tropical rain forests of the south tapers off into the Indian Ocean between the Bay of Bengal on the east and the Arabian Sea on the west, India is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world.

The bustling old bazaars rub shoulders with swanky shopping malls, and majestic monuments and luxurious heritage hotels attract people worldwide. The mountains, beaches, historical places, tea plantations and houseboats make India the favourite destination of travel lovers in Russia. Yoga, Ayurveda, and corporate hospitals boost tourism to compete with the international market.

Tourism in Russia has seen rapid growth since the late Soviet times, first domestic tourism and then international tourism. With a rich cultural heritage and natural variety of places, Russia is among the most popular tourist destinations in the world.

The culture and traditions in the country and people of different nationalities vary from one region to the next. What remains constant is the rugged beauty of the land and beautiful architecture that are interspersed with a rich history.

As an emerging market and the largest country in the world, spanning two continents, Russia is a particularly intriguing market for the global travel and tourism industry.
