visitors follow local custums/host country welcome differences. Disscuss both and give your opinion.

With advancements in transforming technology, the tourism industry is now one of the prominent sources of income in many societies. Following the social norms is a new debate among

people

all around the world. While it is suggested by some

people

that conforming to local customs and

rules

should be observed by

tourists

, I strongly agree with those who believe the

host

society should be patient with cultural

differences

. On the one hand, some

people

justifiably argue that the

host

countries should be willing to embrace cultural

differences

wholeheartedly. From a cultural viewpoint, being aware of the

rules

and customs of a

country

may take ages.

Therefore

, visitors may find it a tedious and useless effort.

In addition

, in my opinion, once the local

people

are exposed to the cultural

differences

of the visitors,

differences

in clothes and behaviour ,

for instance

, they are more likely gain valuable knowledge about cultures of

people

from other nations.

On the other hand

, another group of

people

claim that

tourists

should respect the customs and

rules

of the

country

which they are visiting. Since many norms and

rules

stem from religious roots, ignoring them can lead to conflict among

people

.

For example

,

tourists

who travel to Islamic countries should be fully aware that they should refrain from eating and drinking in public areas during Ramadan month.

Consequently

,

tourists

and emigrants who are oblivious to the mentioned

rules

may offend the local

people

or even they will probably keep in custody. In conclusion, it is true that there are some benefits associated with following the

host

country

's

rules

by

tourists

such

as preventing conflict among

people

from different countries.

However

, in my view, raising public awareness about different cultures can be helpful for the

people

who live in the

host

country

in the long run.
