Abstract | Travel literature is one of the broad and popular genres of writing covering adventure, exploration, writing collections, memoirs, and centric fiction related to travel history. Such accounts enable one to know about various cities and countries and become familiar with varied cultures, behavioral patterns and their livings conditions. It was found to start in medieval China, ancient Greece, and in early Arabic literature. Travel literature gain popularity during the Song dynasty of medieval China. In India, travels writings of Jean Batise Tavernier, Ibn-e Battuta Hiuen Tsang and Fa-Hien illustrate the detailed historical background of Indian history, its culture and customs. Travel writing about India gains more popularity in the post-independence era. Writings of VS Naipoul (An Area of Darkness, India: A wounded Civilization, India: Million Mutinies Now), Vikram Seth (From Heaven Lake), Bill Aitken (Seven Sacred Rivers, The Nanda Devi Affair and Footloose in the Himalayas) and Willium Dalrymple (City of Djinns and The Age of Kali) are classical example of Indian travelogue literature.
