| Abstract | Tourism is a vital sector contributing to economic growth, employment, cultural exchange, and regional development. Sustainable tourism development has emerged as a major concern for policymakers and stakeholders, aiming to balance economic benefits with environmental and cultural preservation. Tourist facilities—such as transportation, accommodation, sanitation, hospitality, safety, and communication services—significantly shape tourist satisfaction and destination sustainability. Darbhanga, located in the Mithila region of Bihar, is rich in cultural heritage, religious significance, and traditional art forms, giving it high potential for tourism. However, inadequate infrastructure and limited tourist facilities constrain sustainable tourism development. This empirical study assesses existing tourist facilities in Darbhanga and analyzes their impact on sustainable tourism development. Using primary and secondary data, the study evaluates tourist perceptions across multiple service dimensions and identifies challenges hindering tourism growth. The findings reveal that quality facilities positively influence tourist satisfaction, destination image, and environmental sustainability. The study concludes that strategic infrastructure planning, environmental management, and community engagement are crucial for achieving sustainable tourism growth in the region. |
