Uttar Pradesh is set for a massive tourism transformation as Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath announces the development of 408 tourist destinations across the state. The initiative aims to upgrade heritage landmarks, religious sites, hidden gems, and high-potential attractions with modern amenities, boosting both tourism and the local economy.

Inclusive Planning with Public Participation

Under the Tourism Development Participation Scheme, district magistrates have submitted proposals for site development based on suggestions from local representatives. This participatory approach ensures that the growth of tourism respects cultural heritage and environmental sustainability. Each tehsil and assembly constituency is slated to receive at least one upgraded tourist site alongside existing popular destinations.
