Shimla (By Vikram)

Points to Remember:-⁣

Hotel needs to be booked 5 days before going to Himachal, in Uttarakhand tourists will have to stay in the hotel for 7 days without report.⁣

Chardham Yatra started for all states of the country, Uttarakhand government started online service for Yatra from July 27. ⁣

Saint Augustine has said "The world is a book and those who do not travel are able to read only one page". ⁣

Travel is an important part of one's life, so it is an important task to complete once a year. However, since the outbreak of the coronavirus, the name of the explorer from the lives of people has already ended. ⁣

The situation is still not improving, but the locals in Uttarakhand and Himachal have opened the doors to tourists.⁣

Help the hotel staffs


It is necessary to keep the Arogya Setu app in your phone during travel in both states. Also, be careful after reaching the hotel. If possible, go up stairs instead of lift. If using lift, take special care of social distancing and mask.⁣

According to the Himachal government guidelines, if you are sneezing or coughing, the hotel will not refuse you to check in but will offer you medical facility. If your illness persists for a long time, the hotel will call the Corona helpline number and the entire floor will be locked along with the room.⁣

Every year more than three crore tourists used to visit Uttarakhand.⁣


Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh are very popular places among travelers. Every year the number of tourists is in crores. However, Coronavirus has put a long break on the journey.⁣

The number of tourists reaching Uttarakhand in 2019 was 3 crore 77 lakh 38 thousand. Out of this, 1 lakh 52 thousand 273 tourists came from abroad.⁣

A total of 1 crore 72 lakh 12 thousand 107 tourists reached Himachal Pradesh in 2019. Out of these 3 lakh 82 thousand 876 tourists were foreigners. Compared to 2018, tourists in Himachal Pradesh increased 4.63 percent in 2019.⁣

When traveling to other states, what should be kept in mind?⁣


You can do tourism in other states besides Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand during the epidemic. These include Goa, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh. However, before going to these states, you have to take care of precautions and documents.⁣

Madhya Pradesh has opened large national parks. But, here you have to follow the mask and social distancing. Not only this, there will be screening at the gate of any tourist place. If you are unwell you can be prevented from going inside. ⁣

Here in tourism registered trains only 6 people from one family and 4 people from different families will be able to sit.⁣

The rules are also the same in Rajasthan which is famous for tourism, old palaces and forts. You must undergo screening before entry at Tourist Place and no more than 5 people are allowed in a group.⁣

Like in Himachal Pradesh, in Goa too, travelers will have to book hotel rooms in advance and also keep a negative corona certificate along with them. If you have not done the check before going to Goa, then there will be a test on the border itself and can also be sent back if you come positive.
