Tourism, Blessing or Curse?
2011. - 2015. g.
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.

Tourism is seen as an entertainment and people enjoy travelling to other places and experience different cultures. However, not everything that is related to tourism is seen in bright colours. Tourism has both positive and negative influences on environment that are created by involved stakeholders. Moreover, each type of tourism faces dilemmas therefore, the following question: To what extent is tourism a blessing or a curse for the world? needs to be answered and explained. This question plays an important role in tourism industry, because it helps to think how far tourism can go and what people sacrifice in order to gain income.
