Today more and more tourists are visiting places where conditions are difficult, such as the Sahara desert or the Antarctic? What are the benefits and disadvantages of this?

In today's world, a vast majority of people prefer travelling to places, where conditions are challenging,

for example

, the Sahara desert or Antarctica. While travelling to

such

places will give tourists an

experience

of a lifetime, as they will get to explore the unexplored, but there are

also

drawbacks to be taken into account. On the

one

hand, there are a number of advantages for tourists visiting

such

places.

Firstly

, they get to

experience

the extreme weather conditions, which teaches them tolerance and helps to develop them both physically and mentally.

For instance

, as per an article in The New York Times, two-

third

of the youngsters who travelled to

such

extreme places ended up being more successful and could intake more stress level.

Secondly

, tourists get to explore the places which have been untouched due to lack of commercialisation.

In other words

, people get to

experience

these places and form there own judgement, as not much is known about the place or the people.

Therefore

, by going to

such

places

one

gets to

experience

it raw.

On the other hand

,

one

problem, for tourists visiting places with challenging conditions is health issues.

Although

there are ways to survive in places like these, it requires special skills and years of

experience

. To illustrate,

one

of the world's most renowned Scientist passed away within three weeks of his stay in Antarctica, due to pneumonia, as his body could not take the cold. Another possible issue is the survival struggle. Not only will

one

face issues with the overnight stay but

also

with commuting, which is not well developed

as a result

of a lack of government spending on connectivity. In conclusion, even though, the tourists can gain a lot from the

experience

, they will

also

be tested on their survival techniques. The trip can be both physically and mentally exhausting and

one

can end up having a serious health issue
