Tourism is an excellent way to develop a country, but it can also cause harm. How can countries ensure that tourism benefits the development?

It is true that tourists have had tremendous impacts on the

host

countries’ advancements.

Although

Suggestion

Despite

its negative influences cannot be discarded, I agree that its advantages are remarkably higher. On the one hand, travellers visiting a

country

may ruin the environment and cultural values of local residents. One of the most important impacts of

tourism

is pollution.

This

means, the more visitors travel and visit one region, the more they pollute the surroundings. The amount of disposals and carbon dioxide are fundamentally increased as more visitors travel a region, destroying the natural habitat.

In addition

, their habits can be against the local residents’ rules. As a prime example, in

Emirate

the Emirate

, which is an Arab Islamic

country

in the Middle East, local people may not tolerate a US traveller wearing a bikini in the public, whereas

this

clothing is not against

cultural values

Suggestion

the cultural values

of Americans.

As a result

, tourist resorts are negatively affected by these two obvious consequences.

On the other hand

, definitely

this

industry has two important influences on the

host

country

, and I believe that despite having some negative impressions, its benefits are far greater. One important reason behind it is that

this

industry can improve

job

opportunity for the local inhabitants. Cleary, the more visitors travel to a specific region, the more hotels, restaurants, and shopping centres will be constructed, and more local citizens will find better

job

positions.

For instance

, In Kish Island, located in the South of Iran, as the government allowed there to become an open trade place for foreign traders, and more local people have been finding more

job

opportunities. Another important positive effect is that countries can expose their

culture

to other nations.

In particular

, had not Greece become a tourist attraction for Europeans, they would not have known about its historical places and

culture

. Since there are tremendous benefits of expansion and popularity of

tourism

, government and

tourism

industries can focus on reducing the negative effects by taking many initiatives. The awareness among the visiting tourists could easily be established by giving proper guidance and that would save the environment for getting polluted. The

host

country

should engage more system and manpower to keep the places clean and should impose fine if someone found to violate the rules. The influence of foreign

culture

among the mass population is another concern that could be tracked by imposing some plausible rules for the visiting tourists. To sum up, governments of countries can assess the positive and negative influences of

tourism

by looking at cultural, environmental, and vocational aspects. From my perspective, visiting more tourists, local residents can find not only better

job

positions, but their

culture

will become more recognisable to other nations. Reducing the bad effects of

tourism

is another concern that the government and people of the

host

country

can easily control.
