Some people think that using traditions as attractions for money-making will destroy our culture, but others think that there is nothing wrong with attracting tourists that way. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

It is argued whether cultural

will be negatively affected when people take advantage of

traditions

Use synonyms

to make profits or that

tourism

strategy is acceptable and harmless.

Although

the former

view

can be true to some extent, in my opinion, the latter

view

Use synonyms

seems to be more reasonable owing to several reasons below. On the one hand, there are numerous reasons why some people hold a

view

Use synonyms

that attracting tourists by traditional

customs

Use synonyms

can pose a threat to the national culture.

First

Linking Words

of all, using

traditions

Use synonyms

for money-making purposes can underestimate the spiritual

values

Use synonyms

of those long-standing

customs

Use synonyms

.

In other words

Linking Words

, younger generations may not be aware of the responsibility for preserving and spreading good

values

Use synonyms

from their ancestors, but they just regard

traditions

Use synonyms

as a means to earn money. In the long run, valuable

traditions

Use synonyms

can be ignored and lost, harming the unique national identity of a country.

Besides

Linking Words

, being lured by the power of money, many traditional

customs

Use synonyms

can be totally adapted to suit tourists’ demands, which

also

Linking Words

contributes to fading the important

values

Use synonyms

within the pass-on

traditions

Use synonyms

.

On the other hand

Linking Words

, I hold a firm belief that using

traditions

Use synonyms

as a way to develop the

tourism

Use synonyms

industry is justifiable and should be encouraged. The

first

Linking Words

reason supporting my

view

Use synonyms

is that exchanging cultural features to foreign visitors through

tourism

Use synonyms

can enrich the culture of a nation. Vietnam,

for example

Linking Words

, is comfortable and confident to introduce Vietnamese traditional

values

Use synonyms

as well as adopt good

traditions

Use synonyms

from other countries

such

Linking Words

as the USA, China and Japan. By doing so, new generations in Vietnam not only are instilled with traditional

customs

Use synonyms

through education from parents and schools but they

also

Linking Words

become global citizens who are open-minded with the cultural differences.

Besides

Linking Words

, that strategy can be beneficial to

tourism

Use synonyms

development, bringing economic gains to a nation. In fact, humans are likely to be curious about different cultures, so using cultural differences can attract more overseas visitors and make significant contributions to the GDP

as a result

Linking Words

. In conclusion, I accept that making money from

traditions

Use synonyms

can somehow have detrimental effects on the cultural traits, yet I still strongly argue that people should not consider that way as something wrong and unacceptable because of the aforementioned benefits

such

as chances to enrich the culture and a boost for the national economy.
