  • FOREWARD

    When Mrs. Dulari Gupte Qureshi asked me to write a foreword for her recently authored book, I was perplexed as to why she-such a highly respected historian and scholar, had thought of me-a person involved in the daily nimy-gritties of hoteliers and travel, for such an honor However, when I read the preprint copy of the book, I realized she had chosen a subject on which I could "bore" people for hours together. I am pleased to be a part of the many invaluable pages which will, I am sure, bring history alive for all of you!

    Aurangabad, the Gateway to Cultural India, was lost in obscurity. A meaningful effort made by Mrs. Dulari Gupte Qureshi, shall hopefully wake and shake up the "powers-that-be" and remove the casualness in their approach to marketing and selling this cave city, steeped in history Her well-written pages give an inescapable impression of the total void in research work done by earlier scholars, who have summed the various places of interest in and around Aurangabad. Mrs. Qureshi's work is truly an authentic and complete package of an intro to the interesting places in the region, her despair at the chronic government apathy, an insight into the industrial development and the excellent infrastructure available for the comfort of the business and leisure tourist and a definite message to one and all to preserve the invaluable legacy and inheritance in its true grandeur.

    Mrs. Qureshi has synchronized her work of art and research with the perceptions and dreams of the AH & RA, a group of like-minded professionals and entrepreneurs visualizing Aurangabad as a tourist metropolis of the future. For Aurangabad, the state and Central Governments' attitude, the theme of the recently held convention of the Pata holds so very true-Tourism-everybody's business, yet nobody's concern!!

    I indeed laud the detailed study of Mrs. Qureshi on not only the caves of Ajanta and Ellora but also the so-many strategic gates (Darwazas) of the city, the wall fortifying the old city.

    A fitting appreciation and reward for her book would be to get Aurangabad as well deserving place on the world's tourist map as the best choice of a tourist destination. I hope, the concerned ministries and the bureaucracy also get the aimed direction and move towards the categorical promotion of tourism with a difference, rather than a mere eyewash!!

    Wishing Mrs. Qureshi all the best and many more such awakening pieces of valuable art.

  • INTRODUCTION

    Tourism Potential in Aurangabad is a sincere exercise in a synthesis of all the aspects and components of Tourism its strength and weakness in the historical city of Aurangabad. It is also an examination, exploration, and inquiry into the various components like attraction, and accommodation. accessibility and other related areas, their present position, advantages, and lacunae in Aurangabad In this minuscule space an exhaustive analysis has limited scope, and hence a comprehensive study was not possible. Therefore the possibility of errors, slips, and laxity cannot be ruled out. The study has been based on secondary sources like books, journals, magazines, newsletters, brochures, folders, maps, and directories. Extensive use of primary sources especially interviews, discussions dialogues telephone calls and mail has been made. The first chapter deals with the history of Aurangabad. Since Aurangabad's early history is still obscure I have made a pioneering effort to build up this history by weaving in some of the Jost parts and stringing them together. The second chapter highlights the various types of tourism that Aurangabad is endowed with It focuses on historical attractions, Business Tourism, Eco Tourism, and Adventure Tourism.

    Pilgrimage Tourism and Cultural Tourism. I have also ventured to include Educational institutions imparting tourism education in Aurangabad.

    The third chapter traces, the origin of the accommodation sector in Aurangabad right from the ancient to the modern period. Most of the types and kinds of Hotels which are located within the precincts of Aurangabad have been included in this study and the facilities and cuisines they offer. It is quite possible that some hotels might have escaped my notice and I genuinely offer my regrets for this omission. The fourth chapter tracks the trials of Railways in Aurangabad up till the present time. The air services, car rentals, and bus services have been dealt with on similar lines. I have exerted myself in rummaging into all available photographs of old cars or buses and succeeded to some extent.

    The fifth chapter again pursues backward into the past of Travel Agencies and Tour Operators.

    It presents an interesting account of the early difficulties of travel agents, and tour operators who sincerely made an effort to rope in more tourists by offering them better services and more facilities.

    Aurangabad also prides itself in the very early emergence of guide services as otherwise, the cave history language would have been difficult for the tourist to understand. The sixth chapter surveys the various tourism-related government bodies, their initial beginnings in the city, their growth, and their role in the development of Aurangabad and the promotional activities of these bodies I have exerted myself to the maximum extent to make the book a good reading, information, a ride into the history of this beautiful city.
