BHARATPUR, Dec 17: Tourism industry of Sauraha which was battered by the Covid-19 pandemic almost for a year has gradually started reviving. 

This time around the rise in the flow of domestic tourists has spurred tourism activities in Sauraha. Tourism entrepreneurs have attempted to bring positive vibes in the industry by offering discounts at hotels and restaurants and on elephant rides.
