More and more people nowadays visit well-known places to take photographs of themselves,without looking at the place . Why do you think this is happening? Is it a positive or negative trend

In recent years ,it has been noticed that a significant number of individuals who go to popular

tourist

attractions go there to snap

pictures

of themselves,

instead

of looking at the place. I believe

this

is because most

places

are no longer focusing on their cultural significance and human values have

also

changed.

However

, I think

this

is a negative trend and

this

essay will explore my reasons.

To begin

with,

of acquiring or protecting collections, and

this

makes it a good location to take selfies. Most of the tour guides are not very knowledgeable about history or most historical items making it difficult for them to answer questions from tourists,

therefore

people

no longer see the need to enter these

places

.

For example

, research has shown that many

that have beautiful sceneries mainly because of

However

, In my

opinion

this

is a negative trend owing to the fact that it leads to loss of cultural heritage and significance. A vast number of individuals are no longer interested in learning about culture or the history of their environment making them

lose their sense of identity.

Additionally

, foreign tourists who come around are not able to learn and appreciate other

been diverted to snapping photos

inhibiting cultural transmission among them .

For instance

, a survey carried out among

showed that the majority of them spend time taking shots rather than listening to their tour guides . In conclusion, an increasing number of

people

these days visit common museums or exhibition houses to take

pictures

with others because the priorities of those in charge of these

places

have shifted towards only the beautification of these
