Being a voracious traveller, I have travelled to many cities. Out of the long list, I have there is one city which I think is very interesting.

Where it is?

The name of the city is Thimpu, it is the capital of Bhutan, and it falls under Asia.

What it is famous for?

This city is famous for its clean and pristine environment. A sizeable number of tourists visit this place to relax under the arms of nature.

How do you know this city?

Being a travel enthusiast, I have this uncanny knack for visiting offbeat locations. While reading from Wikipedia, I gained information regarding Thimpu city. And to gain experience beyond the conventional domain, I have travelled to it umpteen times. 

And explain why you think it is very interesting?

Post industrialisation, most cities have massive infrastructure and uncontrolled pollution. However, Thimpu city is an exception.

Firstly this city doesn’t have much carbon footprint. And the reason for that is the natives of this place treat nature as god. According to them, saving the environment is akin to worship.

Apart from this, the city doesn’t have much hustle and bustle. People prefer to walk on foot rather than moving here and there on vehicles. Due to this reason, people living over have more patience as compared to the natives of other cities I have visited.

Moreover, the eatables available in the restaurants of Thimpu city are not only delicious but also healthy. The locals serve the food to the tourists in a consummate manner. The love and affection I have received from the people of this city are etched in my memories.

Conclude:

The world must have more such cities to make it a liveable place.

Although I have visited numerous cities in my life, I have found one of them the most interesting.

Where it is?

The city name is Port Blair, and it is the capital of the Andaman and Nicobar islands. It is close to the Bay of Bengal and the Andaman Sea.

What it is famous for?

It is famous for numerous things. The most prominent place to see is ‘The Cellar Jail”.When Britishers had ruled India, they used this prison for the freedom fighters. The authorities organise a light and sound show every day to appraise the people about the atrocities done to the prisoners. I had a tear in my eyes after watching the show.

The other famous place in Portblair is Havelock Island, it is popular for Radhanagar beach that is among the top ten beaches in India.

How do you know this city?

I came to know about this city from the books. Moreover, I visited this place two years back during the summer holidays.

This place is interesting because it is different from other places for holidays. Although Portlblair has all the attributes of a good destination for a perfect vacation, it doesn’t have much hustle and bustle.

Moreover, the city has less carbon footprint because the residents focus on maintaining natural beauty. It was a fascination to see that no shopkeeper uses plastic bags. Furthermore, the drainage system of the city is world-class.

Finally, considering all the positives, I staunchly believe that Portbair is the most interesting city I have ever visited.

No, I don’t think so. I believe that too many tourists will lead to pollution and also will affect the upkeep of historical sites. Such sites need a lot of care and maintenance and limiting the number of visitors to such sites can help maintain them, prevent damage to such sites, and also sustain tourism.

 

5. What can we do to stop visitors from damaging historical places?
To prevent the damage to historical places by the visitors to such places many measures can be taken. There should be strict punishments, like high fines for the people who try to cause harm. There should be security personnel employed to ensure that no one tries to damage the historical places and along with that there should be security cameras installed to monitor the activities of the tourists. There can be tourist guides appointed, who also can ensure that no one causes any damage.

 

 

6. Do you think too many tourists is a positive thing for historical attractions?
In my opinion having too many tourists has both advantages and disadvantages Advantages:

  1. It ensures that our history and culture is passed to the future generation
  2. It brings revenue and business for the people of the city where the historical attraction is.
