What is tourism and the factors …

Tourism is travel undertaken for purposes of recreation rather than business.

Factors of tourist attraction:
(i) Climate: Most people from colder regions expect to have warm, sunny weather for beach holidays.
(ii) Landscape: Many people like to spend their holidays in an attractive environment, which often means mountains, lakes, spectacular sea coasts and landscapes not completely altered by man.
(iii) History and Art: The history and art of an area have potential attractiveness. People visit ancient or picturesque towns and archaeological sites, and enjoy exploring castles, palaces and churches.

(iv) Culture and Economy: These attract tourists with a penchant for experiencing ethnic and local customs. Besides, if a region provides for the needs of tourists at a cheap cost, it is likely to become very popular.
