Heritage Tourism Conclave in Vadodara Explores Preservation Strategies
Imagine a big meeting in Vadodara where people who know about tourism got together.
They talked about how to make it better for visitors to see cool old buildings and places.
Gujarat has lots of these places, like old forts and palaces, but not everyone knows about them.
The government wants to help people see these places and is working with artists.
Someone from the royal family also shared how their family helped keep art and culture alive, even when things were difficult.
The 14th International Heritage Tourism Conclave took place in Vadodara.
