•The Indian tourism sector is experiencing a phase of rapid growth, driven by
a flourishing middle class, increased spending by domestic and foreign
tourists, development of infrastructure and support of the Government.
•The state of West Bengal is endowed with all the diversities of nature and is
a tourist’s dream. From the arid Chhotanagpur plateau region in the west,
forests in the north and south, mountains in the north, sea beaches in the
south and rivers crisscrossing the whole of the state the varied panorama
offers the discerning traveller a wide choice and caters to the requirements
of varied travel segments.
•West Bengal is a complete representation of the Indian subcontinent.
Darjeeling, referred by many as the Queen of Hill Stations, the Darjeeling
Himalayan Railway declared as a World Heritage Site, the vast tea estates
of the Dooars, the famed Royal Bengal Tiger of Sundarban, the innumerable
historical landmarks of India’s and Bengal’s glorious history are all wonders
for the prospective tourists.
•The Government of West Bengal is committed to the development of
Tourism and is keen to invite private investment in the sector.
