Delhi Plans Spiritual Tourism Circuit Connecting Major Temples with Dedicated Buses
The Delhi government plans to launch a spiritual tourism circuit connecting major temples across the city, including Akshardham, Birla Mandir, Lord Venkateshwara Temple, Kali Bari temple, and Yogmaya Temple. Two dedicated buses will operate on this route, allowing tourists to visit multiple religious sites through a single organized tour. The initiative, currently in the tendering stage, aims to diversify Delhi's tourism beyond heritage sites. A workshop with spiritual leaders is also scheduled at Akshardham later this month.
