                                                                                 This is a complicated subject because of whether tourism is a good or a bad thing  depends on your point of view, It has advantages and disadvantages, in my opinion. For  tourists, being able to visit other countries and see different ways of the life is great.  These days, it’s getting cheaper and cheaper to do this, so more and more people can  afford for it. As a result, people from different countries in the world have a greater  amount understanding of each other. which can only be a good thing.
