International tourism has brought enormous benefits to many places. At the same time, there is concern about its impact on local inhabitants and the environment. Do the disadvantages of international tourism outweigh the advantages? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

Nowadays, there is a controversy going on between some groups of people. Some believe that due to the rise in foreign tours and exchange, there have been humongous merits observed in some places. Whilst some people believe that due to the rise in global
tourism
there have been a great impact on their local businesses and their economy is highly affected.
However
, I strongly consider that the merits definitely outweigh its demerits and will be justifying from my own experience.
To begin
, these days due to excessive growth in the international
tourism
industry, many nations have benefited.
For instance
, international visitors come across all over the globe to particular countries’ to explore and discover other cultures and meet new people.
Moreover
, they
also
support local inhabitants by buying various types of goods from them at double the price. Apart from that, they
also
book various local tours which are being operated by the government or private agents, which again helps in developing the economy of the nation.
Furthermore
, plenty of sources of income are generated by the
tourism
industry every year, due to the rise in global travelling. As more and more travellers are coming, new languages are exposed to the
country
and due to that we are able to learn and adapt new linguistics which is perhaps a good thing.
In contrast
, there are a few negligible demerits for the same. To illustrate, if proper checking facilities are not implemented in international airports there is a considerable amount of chance that, a group of terrorists might enter the
country
. They can harm and destroy the
country
in as many ways as possible.
For example
, they can start open gunfire in highly populated areas and seize money from people and threaten them.
Also
, threaten the government about killing people. In conclusion, I firmly agree that there are a lot of advantages because of the increase in international
tourism
because they bring directly or indirectly too many

cultures
as well as monetary gains to a
country
. Which makes
its
the thing named or in question
it
disadvantages
Suggestion
disadvantaged
obsolete or redundant in sync with its merits.
