Tourism website to go multilingual

Shimla, May 6
The state government is planning to attract foreign tourists by placing
information in different foreign languages on the tourism department's
website giving details about various tourist destinations in the state.

The order on providing tourism-related information in Chinese on the
official website had already been passed, tourism minister G.S. Bali
said today.

Later on, the website would also have information in Japanese, French,
Spanish and other languages to enhance flow of tourists speaking these
languages, he said. It was part of the strategy to tap global tourism
potential, he added.

The multimedia files on our website would help foreign tourists to know
about the state and plan their journeys in a better way, he added. — PTI
