Tourism

Tourism refers to the activity of traveling to different places for leisure, recreation, or exploration purposes. It involves the movement of people away from their usual place of residence to various destinations, which can include cities, countries, or natural attractions. Tourism encompasses a wide range of experiences, including sightseeing, adventure activities, cultural exchanges, and relaxation. It plays a significant role in the economy by generating revenue for local communities through spending on accommodations, food, transportation, entertainment, and attractions. Tourism can also lead to increased cultural exchange and understanding among different peoples. It is often categorized into different types, including domestic tourism (travel within one’s own country) and international tourism (travel to a foreign country). Factors influencing tourism include accessibility, attractions, infrastructure, and the social and political environment of a destination.
