Abstract

In the original language

Tourism experts have considered the local perspective as an important area of research involving the tourist sector. Residents of places where sharing and preserving their culture are essential can experience both positive and negative effects from tourism. This study examined how Indian Buddhist circuit residents felt about tourism using a benefits-based approach. The paper's primary goal is to investigate residents' perceptions of tourism development in the Buddhist circuit in India. Data were collected using a five-point Likert scale from 175 Buddhist circuit residents in India, who had 31 statements. The researcher used a convenience sampling approach. The study took place over 24 weeks from January to July 2022. According to the results, people living in Buddhist circuits are more sensitive to tourism's economic effects than its cultural and social aspects. The local community will support tourism growth if it brings about considerable personal benefits.
