Abstract

A large number of historical tourist sites including forts, religious places, and tourist places located in Jammu division of Union territory of Jammu and Kashmir. Some of them get good attention from the governments and were promoted as tourist economic hubs like Mata Shri Vaishno Devi Katra, and some in the vicinity of Jammu district and its adjacent areas. However the sites located in the hilly geographical region of Jammu division were neglected either due to the policies of successive governments or by non availability of transport facility and not giving much attention for developing tourist infrastructures in these areas of the erstwhile state. In this paper we tried to highlights the important sites which were important from religious historical geographical and economic point of view.
