What is Stamp Tourism?
Watch this video:
https://youtu.be/4YNHNpNXU2s

Stamp Tourism is a new initiative by Indian Globetrotting to promote Stamp Collection in kids and encouraging them to visit those places displayed on the stamp. The motivation behind this "Stamp Tourism" is an inspirational speech by Narendra Modi during the 73rd Independence day Celebration, that he requested all Indian's to visit at least 15 places by 2022. In the year 2022, we will be celebrating 75 Years of India's Independence.
Stamp Tourism videos will explain in detail, the historic importance of those places and other details about the stamp like publishing date, category, price etc..
Stamp Collection now is not a trendy hobby, and the challenge is to get kids started. So I request all the parents to encourage your kids to start collecting stamp and share some time with family in visiting those beautiful places displayed in the stamp

We also request you to share those photos and videos which you have taken infront of those stamp tourism places to Indian Globetrotting. We will be sharing those photos shared by you in the upcoming videos and in the Indian Globetrotting blog page. Exciting Prizes will be shared to active participants of Stamp Tourism.
