ABOUT THE DESTINATION

About Chandanpura

A community-based rural tourism initiative bringing together five homestays, local hospitality and the distinctive character of Chandanpura.

CHANDANPURA HOMESTAYS

Authentic stays rooted in the local community

Chandanpura is being developed as a community-based rural tourism destination where travellers can experience the natural beauty, traditions and everyday life of Bundelkhand while staying with local families.

Five homestays have been developed in the village to provide welcoming accommodation while creating meaningful livelihood opportunities for participating households. The individual homestays retain their own identity, while this portal brings them together under one common destination platform.

THE PARTNERSHIP

The Chandanpura Homestays initiative has been developed by Haritika NGO with support from the Madhya Pradesh Tourism Board and the LTM CSR Foundation. Together, the initiative seeks to build a locally owned tourism ecosystem that strengthens household livelihoods while offering travellers an authentic experience of rural Madhya Pradesh.

OUR PURPOSE

Tourism that supports local livelihoods

The initiative is intended to create sustainable income opportunities for rural families while encouraging tourism that respects local culture, community ownership and the natural environment. By choosing a Chandanpura homestay, guests become part of a tourism model that places local people at the centre of the visitor experience.

The five homestays are connected through the common Chandanpura Homestays portal, making it easier for travellers to discover the destination, compare accommodation options and continue to the individual property website for booking and further information.
