On day one, only a few took the trip in double-decker buses
After facing many hitches, Ambari finally hit the road in Mysuru on Saturday. The open-roof hop-on hop-off double-decker buses, the city’s newest tourist attraction, are providing a new platform for experiencing and exploring the royal city’s heritage wonders. An initiative of Karnataka State Tourism Development Corporation (KSTDC), Ambari’s roll out had faced hurdles since last year due to the pandemic situation and lockdowns. It was formally launched in March this year. Thanks to the withdrawal of weekend lockdown, which was in place here for over a month, tourists have started returning to the city and the KSTDC was strongly hoping to attract more tourists to its initiative. The relaxation of curbs has been welcomed by the tourist industry which is hoping for tourism revival in the ensuing Dasara season although the festivities will be simple this year too.More Related News
