Answer 1

Tourism means people travelling for fun. It includes activities such as sightseeing and camping.

According to Neil Leiper, The tourists are the people who travel away from the home to another place for a short-term period of at least one night, to the extent that their behaviour involves a search for leisure experiences from interactions with features or characteristics of places they choose to visit. (Leiper, 2004) And also Leiper said “At least one tourist is elementary. Without tourists there can be tourism (Leiper, 2004)”.

He says there are three main elements for tourism industry/system.

They are -

Human element otherwise called the tourist

Geographical element, including Generating region, destination region and the enroute

Lastly, the industrial element.

Tourist is that personnel who start the trip from a place, travels to a certain area and then return back to the placed from where they have started the trip.

The generating region is the location/the source of potential tourism demand.

Transit routes are the paths linking the tourist from generating regions to the destination region.

Destination region is the location which attracted the tourist to stay temporarily.

Push factor encourages the individuals to move away from their home.

Pull factor are those attributes of a different place which attract a person to stay temporarily.

To make this happen, we need the tourism industry, which plays a vital role in this system.

It includes,

Marketing

Tourist carriers

Accommodation providers

Event providers

Surplus services
