What are 10 benefits of tourism?

Answer 1

People working in the tourism sector have many advantage: they get to meet many new people from different parts of the world or country, thus enhancing social interaction. Tourism encourages the preservation and celebration of local festivals and cultural activities. When a local community, for example, organized a cultural dance to entertain visitors it ensures that these cultural activities will be maintained to the end. Tourism encourages language learning and new skills. As tourists come around, they learn the local language as they interact with the locals. Also people from this region are learning the language of the visitors. It promotes cultural exchange in one direction. Tourism also provides jobs to people. The government is working hard to promote tourism, it ensures that there is environmental protection such as the prohibition of deforestation, forests in a particular area could serve as a tourist site. Forests, water catchments, natural caves and other antiquities therefore need to be protected.
