# Go-Travel: Enhancing Tourism in Bangladesh through a Web-Based Platform



## Introduction



Bangladesh's tourism sector is a significant contributor to the country's economy, thanks to its rich cultural heritage and natural beauty. However, the promotion of these attractions has been hampered by limited technological integration, which makes it difficult for tourists to access reliable information and plan their visits. The "Go-Travel" project aims to address these issues by introducing a centralized, web-based platform designed to enhance the tourism experience in Bangladesh.



## Overview of Go-Travel



Go-Travel is proposed as a comprehensive online tool that will serve tourists, travel agents, and accommodation providers alike. This platform is intended to be a one-stop solution for accessing detailed information about tourist spots across Bangladesh and for facilitating effective travel planning.
