Some people think that foreign visitors should be charged more than locals when they visit cultural and tourist attractions in a country. To what extent do you agree with this view?

These days, we are witnessing a huge rise in the number of people having a great passion to visit other countries and their cultural places. It is universally accepted that maintenance of these historical attractions needs a specific budget in several aspects. A

further

significant thing should be mentioned is that, the tourism is a kind of business and has a host of benefits. In

this

essay, we will argue about

this

fact that, in my opinion, foreign visitors should be charged more than locals due to the reasons below.

Firstly

, I believe, the tourism is a fantastic opportunity to make a huge economic prosperity for local people.

In other words

, when a foreign passenger enters to our country, he/she brings an enormous amount of currency with him/her. My impression is that, there are a vast array of merits behind

this

, but, undoubtedly, the most fundamental impact is the financial benefit would be gained. The locals can sell their products and earn a good profit.

For instance

, hand-made goods, organic local foods and so on. A

further

place is cultural attractions. These buildings are so attractive for foreign tourists. Since visiting these places need to spend money, it is

also

another chance to earn money and because of

this

fact, I think foreign people should be charged more than locals.

Secondly

, another reason that makes us charge tourists more, is about the cost of maintenance of historical places. As we all know,

such

ancient places are likely to be destructed. Every visit of them can cause lots of damages in terms of their out view. So, what I say is that a foreign passenger should pay more money in order to maintain these buildings. In my point of view, the cultural and historical attractions are the manifestation of the culture of our country, so, we must genuinely protect them and I think, the most substantial way is charging foreign passenger. By way of conclusion, I agree with

this

view that foreign visitors should be charged more because of two profound reasons:

First

, the opportunity of creating jobs for locals.

Second

, the cost of maintenance of these places, as they are our national treasures.
