We like to see new things and new places. We do not want to stay at the same place. We like to visit different places. Going from one place to another place to another is called travelling. We may travel in our own country or may go abroad. We may travel far or near.
People travel for various reasons. Some persons travel for the sake of pleasure. They go to see places interest. Some men travel for business. They go to buy and sell things. Some people travel for education. Some persons travel for health. They go to healthy places for change of air. Some person travel for pilgrimage. Some men go to visit their kith and kin.
There are different modes of travelling. The cheapest and easiest method of travelling is on foot. But we cannot travel to distant places on foot. Another mode of travelling is on a bicycle. The bicycle is the poor man’s vehicle. We travel to distant places by bus of train. We go to foreign countries by ship or airplane. The airplane is the swiftest means of travelling. In some places, people travel on horses, camels, elephants of by carts.
In ancient times, travelling was difficult and dangerous. There were few good roads. There were no trains, ships or buses. There was danger of being attacked on the way by robbers. People used to travel in groups. They had to walk long distance on foot. Travelling is easy nowadays. There are good roads and different modes of travelling. We can easily go from one place to another.
Travelling has many advantages. It gives us pleasure. When we see beautiful places and fine scenes, our minds are filled with joy. Travelling gives us knowledge. We see new places and meet new people. We learn many things about them. We can introduce some good things in our country. Travelling creates understanding and sympathy. When we come into contact with the people of other places, we understand their ways and manners. We begin to look upon them with respect. Travelling broadens our outlook and removes places should travel and meet one another. Then they will know one another better.
Travelling for the young is a sort of education and for the old a part of experience. In Europe and America people travel much. They go to other places on week-ends and other holidays. Students also are in the habit of travelling. Education is not considered complete without travelling. The students of our country also should emulate this example. They should travel far and near.
The people of our country do not travel much. One reason is that they are poor. Another reason is that travelling is difficult in our country. We do not have many good roads in our country. Travelling is especially difficult in the highly regions. There is hardly any means of travelling except walking on foot. In the Terai also, the roads are not good at many places. We have to travel in bullock-carts. In the rainy season, the roads are full of water and mud. Hence, we should try to build more roads in our country.
So I will request you please visit our country you can see more historical, mountain and many more places.
