Mountain Tourism and Preservation of Cultural Heritage: A Study on Indigenous Tourism Resources in Munnar
Abstract
Indigenous populations live in Munnar, a well-known hill station in Kerala, and their cultural legacy is intricately entwined with the surrounding landscape. This study offers a guide for striking a balance between economic expansion and cultural conservation by examining the ways in which tourism may support and maintain certain traditional practices. By emphasizing how indigenous populations might influence tourism products in the mountain destinations, this research adds to the larger conversation on responsible tourism. It discusses the advantages and disadvantages that result from transforming indigenous customs and ways of life into tourist attractions. The study highlights the significance of community engagement in the development and execution of tourist plans by examining the possibilities of culturally based mountain tourism products in Munnar.
