It is not necessary to travel to travel to other places to learn the culture of other people. We can learn just as much from books, films and the internet . Do you agree or disagree ?

It is commonly believed that it is not essential to travel to the nations or territories to figure about their cultures, and today’s state - of - the - art technological facilities

such

as computers connected to the Internet or films can be used. In my view, I do not agree with

this

thinking. It is understandable why some people advocate the idea of learning about the

culture

without going travelling to other sites. The rationale for

this

is that in

this

day and age, thanks to Internet coverage on almost the corners of the world, a wealth of knowledge about all fields are available for people to have access to, with no exception of

culture

- associated information. People can easily find the answers for questions or issues about

culture

which they are interested in only by searching on Google or other browsers.

In addition

, film producers

also

tend to include the contents about

culture

into some their films to advertise the image of their country so that people

also

find out about it through

this

kind of films, or even through

culture

-related books which are various today.

However

, some information on the Internet, in the books or films may be incorrect or make no sense to read.

Moreover

, some knowledge, which readers care about, may not be included on the Internet, books or films. All of these may limit the human’s perception of the certain

culture

. I am of the opinion that people should go travelling to the countries where they want to find out its

culture

and custom to have practical experience in lieu of learning through the Internet or materials offering only theories which sometimes are insufficient for people’s information exploration. The reason is that travellers would have a chance to experience actually, figure out about

culture

by themselves, but not by others’ thinking or review written in newspapers or books.

This

could help them truly understand about what the

culture

of the country really is and how it is presented in reality.

Although

today, moving to other places to know about the

culture

is considered an unnecessary method, it could bring lots of practical experience which books, films or the Internet could not bring about.
