Siswan-Mirzapur Forest Emerges as Eco-Tourism Hub

The Siswan-Mirzapur forest in Punjab is becoming a popular place for people to visit and enjoy nature.

There is a nice 5-kilometer walk that takes about an hour and a half to finish.

Visitors can also enjoy boating, eat at a canteen, and stay in eco-huts.

The forest department is working to create more walking paths and trails for people to explore.

They are also teaching people in nearby villages new skills to help them find jobs.

Schools are bringing children to the forest to learn about nature and how to protect it.

The government is making sure that tourism in the forest is done in a way that is good for the environment and the local people.
