tourism

will be put forward.

First

and foremost,the most prominent reason is that

tourism

is the main foreign outcome in some countries as the foreigners spend an enormous amount of money during their vacation.The governments and authorities even preserve a particular region just to enhance

tourism

.A good illustration for

this

would be Bagan in Myanmar,which is regarded as the ancient city of precious heritages and pagodas.

Therefore

,

tourism

provides ample motivation to conserve our age-old culture.Being bogged down by illusionary ghouls of cultural destruction and restricting those areas would be an utter waste of worthless infrastructure and money. What is more,as most of the tourist attractions are all open to visitors and tourists for observation,it would be debatable that they might somehow damage the valuable antiques.

Nevertheless

,if the historical places were prohibited from globe-trotters, preserving those areas would be downright meaningless.Just because the tourists might have left their own identity indeliberately in the places they had visited,it does not necessarily mean that they cause destruction or harm.In fact, it is just a part of modern cultural convergence where different traditions and customs are mixed.And,

this

is totally not the case since it has become incessantly ubiquitous in some fields,eg,international media.

Therefore

, it is pertinent to mention that

tourism

does not taint the local culture and environment, in fact, it fortifies them. To recapitulate,I am totally against the ideology that

tourism
