Extract

There are many damaging aspects of tourism, however, not everything related to tourism is bad and with the help of tourism activity there are positive aspects as well. Therefore, the positive impacts are that tourism generates income for the local communities and creates new infrastructure as well as it creates employment. Furthermore, regarding wildlife the conservation programmes are supported and financed with the help of tourism, therefore helping preserve endangered species.
Taking everything into consideration it is not easy to decide whether tourism is a blessing or curse, however, in my opinion if tourism is managed in the right way, children are not used for tourism purposes and tourists do not buy parts of animals then it is a blessing for every stakeholder involved. With the help of tourism people can experience new places and meet with new people. Besides that tourists can help others with donation or just support local communities in other ways. Lastly, as tourism brings joy to people it can be said that tourism is a blessing and without it world would not be full of experiences and discoveries.
