Abstract: The project is a multi-pronged platform for India to preserve and demonstrate its rich cultural past together with the modernization of technologies. The implementation of Augmented Reality for tourist purposes [8][9][10] led to the design of the platform that offers virtual reality tours of historical monuments and cultural landmarks, and thus, teaches the public the history of such locations and their historical significance. An artisans' space is part of a cultural marketplace scheme, which is partially based on community tourism paradigms [6][7], of designing a cultivation estate from where local artists can showcase their authentic, handcrafted works and generate revenues from their skills; thus, “community restoration and crafts delivering possibilities” has become a reality. Concepts of engageable learning and motivation through gamified experiences [3][4] make India's heritage learning into an interactive and pleasurable experience. Additionally, an AI-driven cultural chatbot, together with the developments in AI and NLP [1][2], permits to have an uninterrupted communication with smart gadgets about the country's culture and the event's history, which contributes to the discovery of historical information unique and authentic. Through the combination of AR, e-commerce, gamification, and artificial intelligence, India has devised a novel and comprehensive method for the preservation of its cultural heritage filled with many layers, which will touch the hearts of the future generations to a higher degree of comprehension and unflappable dedication.
