Travelling around the
world
 is always considered as one measure to improve one's understanding of other community's lifestyle,culture and
people
.Visiting various countries helps to broaden an individual's outlook towards the
world
.
However
,there is some contrasting opinion about it.International tourism sometimes makes
people
 more biased against some cultures.
This
 essay will discuss the reasons and solutions for
this
 trend.
Firstly
,the main cause of
this
 unwanted outcome is a lack of knowledge about the visiting nation's history and culture.
Secondly
,comparison of own country's lifestyle and history to others.
Finally
,because of
people
's unwillingness to show respect to the local traditions.
For instance
,Western
people
 who visit the Arab
world
 feel uncomfortable obeying certain regulations set by that community like cladding the whole body of women or covering the head when they enter holy places.Some middle-eastern countries have banned females from driving too.Some persons consider those population's customs as unacceptable. The main solution for all these problems is studying other realms of history and customs.Western culture is completely different from the eastern and middle-eastern style of living.So overgeneralization of other societies way of living should be avoided.Religious and social reforms are happening in all communities.In a contemporary
world
, everyone must develop an understanding of other territories chronicles in order to respect their heritage.
For example
,when we fully understand the historical background of certain traditions we will not be prejudiced about it. To put it in a nutshell,exploration of different civilization normally helps to increase one's awareness about life.But travelling sometimes does not work positively.There are many possible reasons and potential solutions for
this
 issue.Education about other communities before you visit them proved as the best solution.
