Wireless Sensor Networks have originated vast significance after the expansion of wireless technology. A Wireless Sensor Network is an amalgamation of enormous amount of sensing devices termed sensor nodes. In Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) due to the constraints the nodes, power and energy effectiveness is an essential point which should be well-thought-out at the instance of scheming of protocols. Wireless Sensor Networks in recent times move toward into distinction for the reason that they hold the impending to transform segment of our cost-cutting work out and existence with its broad applications. Several applications comprise like landslide detection, glacial monitoring, wildlife tracking, health care, military applications, environmental monitoring and a huge quantity of applications to robotics, internet of things etc. The articulation of information is based on the Routing Protocols which chooses the optimum route involving any number of nodes. Various types of Routing Protocols are useful to specific network surroundings. Routing Protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks are responsible for retaining the routes in the network and guarantee dependable multi-hop transmission beneath these situations. The paper reviews the WSNs Architecture and Design as well as Routing Protocols Taxonomy, Prime Routing Protocols and its further Research Areas in association with Wireless Sensor Networks.
