In recent years, eco-tourism, often referred to as sustainable tourism, has grown in popularity. People are looking for ways to travel and have a good time without damaging the environment as they grow more conscious of the effects of tourism. Eco-tourism provides a solution by promoting sensible travel habits that aid conservation efforts and offer close encounters with the natural world. Eco-tourism is a type of sustainable travel that emphasises encounters with the natural world. It entails eco-friendly travel habits that lessen their negative effects on the environment and advance conservation initiatives.
Ecotourism aims to inform and motivate visitors about the natural environment and its preservation. While giving guests remarkable and genuine experiences, the objective is to have a good impact on the environment and local people. Recent years have seen a surge in ecotourism as tourists look for real, in-the-moment encounters with nature. Eco-tourists prefer in-depth interactions with the local environment, wildlife, and communities versus cursory sightseeing. When carried out ethically, ecotourism may support conservation efforts and increase public understanding of environmental issues worldwide.
Benefits of Eco-Tourism
There are several advantages of ecotourism for both tourists and the environment. The fact that it encourages eco-friendly tourist methods is one of its key benefits. Visitors are thus urged to reduce waste, save resources, and aid with local conservation initiatives in order to lessen their negative effects on the environment. Visitors can also learn about the natural environment and its preservation through eco-tourism. This can encourage support for and greater knowledge of environmental issues.

National Parks Of India
India is blessed with a rich tapestry of biodiversity that is both a natural heritage and a national treasure. The concept of national parks in the country traces back to the late 19th century when the importance of conserving wildlife began to take root in the consciousness of the colonial administration. The first national park in India, Hailey National Park (now known as Rajaji National Park), was established in 1936, marking a historic commitment to wildlife conservation. The post-independence era saw an exponential increase in protected areas, primarily driven by a need to conserve India’s unique flora and fauna threatened by rampant industrialization and urbanization.
