A Foreign Tourist travels to India and narrates her experience - India is Dirty and Unsafe

SIBY JEYYA
A recent travel narrative from a foreign tourist visiting india described her experience as disappointing, emphasizing concerns about cleanliness and safety. According to her, India’s bustling streets and vibrant energy were initially fascinating, but she found the conditions in many urban areas overwhelming due to visible pollution, inadequate waste disposal, and overcrowded spaces.


She noted that litter and poor sanitation standards detracted from the natural beauty and historic appeal of many destinations. As a tourist expecting a journey filled with cultural marvels, she found it challenging to reconcile these expectations with the environmental conditions she encountered in certain areas.

Safety was another significant concern for the tourists. As a solo traveler, she had hoped to explore India’s famous markets, temples, and historical sites freely, but found herself feeling vulnerable due to incidents of harassment and crowded conditions where personal space was often limited.


While many locals were warm and helpful, her experiences with persistent touts, unsolicited attention, and concerns over personal belongings made her feel cautious and restricted in her movements. She noted that though she tried to take precautions, the frequent warnings from other tourists and travel advisories about being mindful of personal safety impacted her sense of freedom during her stay.
