Some people believe that to protect local culture, tourism should be banned in some areas whereas others think that change is inevitable and banning tourism will have no benefits. Discuss both sides and gives your opinion.

With the rapid growth of the population, people discovered many places in the forests and mountains which are different for normal cultures like old art paintings etc. Many people who want to explore these places and cultures often need the permission from local governments. Some people believe that local

tourism

should be banned due to its significance and importance.

However

, I completely disagree with

this

statement and in

this

essay I will discuss some reasons to support my opinion.

Firstly

,

Tourism

increases money and significance of cultures. What I mean by

this

is that tourists buy permits, visas and local goods when they

visit

any tourist

place

which helps in the growth of revenue.

Moreover

, most of the revenues generated, are used for the local developments and maintenance.

For Example

, Taj Mahal is being visited by thousands of people every year, generating huge revenues for local bodies.

Additionally

,

tourism

generates more jobs to local people, I mean that tourists who

visit

any

place

requires stay, travel and food.

For Instance

, people who

visit

for the Taj Mahal should travel to the nearest city by air and

then

by road to reach the destination

also

should have local food.

This

direct effect of income from

tourism

, highly benefits local people.

Furthermore

,

tourism

boosts significance of old traditions with huge popularity and media coverage. Turning on to the other side of the argument, many people think that

tourism

often affects their culture and customs. They believe that with popularity, their values and traditions are changing completely to cope with flooding tourists.

In addition

to

this

many people who travel have a habit of misbehaving with the monuments or the paintings or the

place

they

visit

marking the way for bans.

For Example

, A tree in the middle of the Sahara desert was cut down by the visitor making the

place

treeless. In conclusion,

although

tourism

benefits and increase revenues for governments, it should be protected and maintained. One to know the responsibility and importance of the

place

they

visit

. People

also

should be given adequate rules before they

visit

. In my opinion, benefit in the form of generating huge revenues will overcome all other outcomes.

Finally

,

tourism

should not be banned and it should not affect the local traditions as well.
