Скачать или смотреть From Monuments to Meals

For years, travel meant photos with monuments.
Now, for many Indians, it means what you tasted, learned, and brought back in memory.

Food has quietly become one of the biggest drivers of travel decisions.

📊 What the data says:
• Nearly 50% of Indian travellers now choose destinations based on food experiences.
• Over 85–90% say they actively try local cuisine when travelling.
• India’s culinary tourism market is projected to grow at 15%+ CAGR over the next decade, driven by experiential travel, not sightseeing.

What’s really changing is intent:
People aren’t just eating abroad.
They want to understand ingredients, techniques, and traditions — from street food stalls to cooking schools.

🔎 This creates three big opportunities:
🍽️ For travellers:
Your trips can become richer when you explore culture through food, not just locations.
🎥 For creators:
Culinary tourism sits at the intersection of food, travel, and culture — one of the most engaging content niches emerging today.
🏪 For food founders:
Indian customers are returning with global tastes.
Bringing authentic flavours to Tier-1 and Tier-2 cities can be a powerful edge — before the market gets crowded.

The next phase of Indian travel won’t be about ticking places off a list.
It will be about learning cultures, one plate at a time.
