Abstract

This paper examines the potential and forms of
sustainable village tourism in Mizoram, Northeast India. This study was
conducted using both qualitative and quantitative approaches. Data was gathered
from the primary and secondary sources. Tourism survey report of India 2018 for
Mizoram was used to collect data on tourists’ inflow, purpose and duration of
stay and level of accommodation from 2016 to 2018. A case study of village Sialsuk
was conducted through household level survey using purposive random sampling
method. The author surveyed 240 households (48%) of the village. The major
questions were asked of on the main options of livelihoods and carrying
capacity of village tourism. The result shows that Mizoram has the tremendous
potential, as it has the number of villages, which has feasible climate,
spectacular landscape, wilderness and abundance local food products and
beverages. These abundance bases support for the sustainable village tourism.
Meanwhile, tourists’ inflow is less in Mizoram. Further, accommodation,
transportation and institutional facilities are insufficient. There are number
of drivers, affecting development of village tourism in Mizoram and among them,
the inner line permit and remoteness/inaccessibility of the villages are the
main drivers. It is suggested that the inner line permit system should be
abolished. Roads should be constructed, publicity of the tourists’ destination
should be ensured and the tourism department should be strengthened so that the
village tourism in Mizoram can be developed
