Significance of each portion of the logo

Eternal Border, mostly found in Hinduism and Buddhism, represents the ever expanding formation to hold the entire Universe within it.

The neverending “wheel of action” is also used in Hinduism and Buddhism. This represents the continuous good and creativity.

The shelter on 'H' in the middle of the wheel represents home and hospitality development.

Colours: The Green respresents “Nature” and the Safron represents “Culture”.

This combination of Conservation, Communities, Commitments makes Help Tourism - outstanding travel experiences since 1991.
