International tourism has brought enormous benefit to many places. At the same time, there is concern about its impact on local inhabitants and the environment. Do the disadvantages of international tourism outweigh the advantages?

Around the world, the

to discover.

However

, there are some possible drawbacks of international

tourism

as it has a negative effect on local inhabitants and the environment.

Nonetheless

, I firmly believe that the merits of

tourism

take precedence over the demerits. On the one hand, international

tourism

has a positive impact as

tourists

spend money on a wide range of services, including hotels, amusements, transportation, and food.

This

way,

tourism

yields an additional income, greatly supporting the countries’ economies.

For instance

, a country like Dubai has the oil industry for generating income but apart from that there is no other source of income generation.

Furthermore

,

tourism

increases the level of employment by bringing new jobs.

For instance

, the influx of

traffic and get damaged.

Also

, the large

of

tourists

can cause environmental problems.

For instance

, when

places

of interest are overcrowded, natural resources often become overexploited.

Additionally

,

tourism

can create more serious situations where criminal issues are involved. The presence of a considerable

number

of

tourists

with a lot of money to spend, and often carrying valuables

as cameras and

, increases the attraction for criminals and brings with it activities like robbery and drug dealing.

To conclude

,

although

tourism

has certain disadvantages like destructive effects and growth of crime rate, it has an extremely positive impact on the country’s economy and provides a large

number

of new jobs for the local people.

Hence

, these benefits of

tourism

outweigh its drawbacks.
