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

It is argued that nowadays

they wish, without needing to visit there themselves.
Although

Firstly

Secondly

Finally

However
, it is important for us to avoid having bias in the
books
we read and the films we watch and
moreover
, look out for all of the misinformation we witness on the internet.
On the other hand
, one should visit a place if he truly wants to learn about their society.

the architectural design of the building there. Indeed, some of these experiences cannot be gained through reading

or watching movies.
For example
, you really don't know how Iranian food tastes without eating it in a traditional

in Iran.
Furthermore
, we know for a fact that most of the famous

. One great example could be Markopolo who visited every country on the Silk Road and took some great notes about each country.
To conclude
,
while
today's technology has enabled us to have access to a tremendous amount of data and a whole lot of

get interested in other cultures
this
way, I believe one still has to visit and feel other cultures
instead
of only witnessing it from far distances.
