Geological Tourism Development in India - A Case Analysis of Belum Caves

Abstract

In view of the fact that beginning of the history, man has migration spirit, which is satisfied through travel, so he has abundant fascination for travel. The urge to know the unknown, to discover new and strange places, to seek change of environment and to achieve new experiences, inspired mankind for new vestas and move from one place to another. Most of the travels in the past were almost unplanned and limited; having not much significance, but as civilization developed and moved further, conscious travels began to invade the world. In fact, the history of civilization is a rather chronological account of tribes and classes leaving the land of their forefathers and going in search of new horizon. So the people are strongly believe that the Caves are abodes of gods and goddesses, therefore sacred in the Indian culture mileu. Hence they become pilligrimage centres. They are found in the hill tracks and forests and form part of eco systems. They were dwellings of human populations all over the world in the prehistoric times.
