Biotourism is an ecological sustainable tourism which promotes cultural integrity of the local people, energy efficiency, and water conservation. It further creates economic opportunities for local communities as well. India’s northeast—embracing the eight states, namely, Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, Meghalaya, Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram, Sikkim, and Tripura—is undoubtedly a slice of paradise with its captivating natural beauty combined with a rich cultural heritage. The region is rich in precious natural resources and is also one of the hot spots which is well known for its forest and unique biodiversity. This part of India is also well known for its diverse tourist spots and attractions. Each of these states has its own distinct cultural, socioreligious features. Each of the state is more beautiful than the other with its own culture and beliefs, each having its own charm. These attractions are scattered over the entire region and are largely located in remote areas. The natural resources and people of the region constitute the tourism resources at large. The multiplicity of topographical, geomorphologic, and climatic conditions has favored the growth of copious forests that are home to abundant plant and animal forms. The potential benefits of such tourism not only improve the socioeconomic status but also give a sense of pride to the inhabitants of the area under operation. |
