Description

The cultural heritage of India offers a deep examination of the country's political and historical evolution. Historical structures and monuments are among a nation's most valuable assets and a source of pride for Indian civilization. Monuments hold significant historical importance and exert a profound emotional influence on the community. Given the deterioration of culturally significant heritage monuments caused by factors such as weather, climate change, and human activity, as well as the threats these elements pose to numerous heritage sites of national and international significance, it is imperative to prioritize the recording, preservation, and conservation of these monuments. Events of cultural significance require comprehensive digital documentation and proper recording. As demonstrated by various programs and initiatives led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the government is committed to enhancing the visitor experience at monuments and museums. The primary aim of the current study is to better understand how cultural heritage sites are digitized and to assess the implications of this process for enhancing the tourist experience. To address the research objectives, a survey was conducted to analyze digital requirements. The digitization of significant cultural heritage sites is vital for the long-term sustainability of the tourism industry. Many methods will be adapted as resources permit, ensuring the industry's steady growth over time. The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2025.
