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.
