Some people believe that tourists should never stay in hotels or resorts because living in such places does not allow them to get access to local cultures and traditions. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this view?

The trend of travelling has been increasingly popular these years, and whether

and resorts has drawn the public’s attention.

Although

some voices believe that

can be isolated from local

cultures

Use synonyms

if they choose to stay in commercial accommodations, I personally do not agree with

this

idea because tourists feel more secure in

hotels

, and they have other methods to know the cities.

First

and foremost, it is undeniable that the

the local culture. Most travel accommodations have similar standards and styles of decoration and

can hardly access a unique view of local citizens’ lives.

In contrast

, vacation rental companies

such

as Airbnb can provide various living experiences offered by local residents.

However

, these private businesses are

inconsistency may bring a sense of insecurity to foreign

Furthermore

, living with local residents is not the only way for

bring unique experiences to people. Compared with living with local households, these activities are well-planned and prepared so that people can have a more comprehensive understanding of one culture and its people.

Similarly

Last

good options that provide an overview. To sum up,

although
