Heritage and cultural tourism

With its rich mixture of culture, Mauritius has the capacity to provide a rewarding and satisfying cultural experience to a wide range of tourists. Programs are underway to further conserve historical sites and areas alongside the development of interpretative centres and promotion of cultural activities. An interesting aspect of development possibilities for cultural tourism lies in the abundance and diversity of the culture in Mauritius. Historical buildings, colonial houses, bridges and traditional lifestyle can become original tourist attractions.
