It is not necessary to travel to other places to learn the culture of other people. We can learn just as much from books, films and the internet . Do you agree or disagree?

Learning about other countries and cultures has become a popular topic recently. There is an argument that a person does not have to travel to another region to get acquainted with a new

culture

and he

/

she can achieve

this

goal by reading, watching

movies

and surfing the internet which I partially agree with. On the one hand, these types of gaining knowledge about other places are acceptable at some point. Watching

movies

or researching through the internet usually reveals information about foods or costumes of that region. People can

also

learn a new language in

this

way which is the basic but fundamental step of getting familiar with another

culture

.

For example

, if someone desires to learn English, building an environment of

this

language by watching

movies

or reading books as well as websites in English will boost his

/

her progress.

On the other hand

, these ways of learning are all virtual and not thorough. An individual who wants to learn about a new

culture

needs to experience it

herself.

In other words

, he

/

she should have real interactions with local people to find out about their way of life.

Movies

are usually presented the good parts of

culture

while everything is a combination of white and black and

this

will not be revealed without going to the target place.

For instance

, a person may know the USA as a utopia by watching some

movies

and reading novels whereas by travelling he

/

she will experience reality. In conclusion,

although

people can learn about other cultures in different ways

such

as through

movies

or reading, I believe that going to the country with that

culture

is vital as well.
