수업 노트
Why tourism has grown
- Tourism is travel for leisure, business or visiting friends, staying away from home for at least one night.
- Rising incomes and paid holidays give people more money and time to travel.
- Cheaper flights, especially budget airlines, and faster transport make distant places accessible.
- The internet makes it easy to research and book trips; social media advertises destinations.
- People live longer and many retired people travel.
Types of tourism
- Mass tourism: large numbers of people visiting the same places, often on package holidays to beach resorts.
- Ecotourism: small-scale, nature-based tourism that protects the environment and benefits local people.
- Adventure tourism: activities such as trekking, climbing and diving.
- Cultural and heritage tourism: visiting historic sites, festivals and museums; city breaks are short urban trips.
Positive impacts of tourism
- Economic: jobs in hotels, restaurants, transport and guiding; income from taxes; money to spend on infrastructure.
- The multiplier effect: money spent by tourists passes on to local suppliers and workers, who spend it too.
- Social: new facilities such as roads and airports that local people can also use; pride in local culture.
- Environmental: entrance fees can pay for conservation of wildlife and landscapes.
Negative impacts of tourism
- Economic: many jobs are seasonal and low-paid; leakage happens when profits go to foreign-owned hotels and tour companies.
- Social: house prices rise when outsiders buy second homes; local culture can be changed or commercialised; crowding.
- Environmental: litter, water and air pollution, footpath erosion, damage to coral reefs, and carbon emissions from flights.
The Butler model
- Butler's tourist area life cycle shows how a resort changes over time.
- Stages: exploration (few visitors) → involvement (locals provide facilities) → development (rapid growth, outside investment) → consolidation (growth slows) → stagnation (peak visitors, resort looks tired).
- After stagnation a resort may decline or be rejuvenated with new attractions.
- Many UK seaside resorts declined when cheap package holidays abroad became popular, and some have been regenerated.
Case study: the Lake District National Park
- The Lake District in Cumbria became one of the UK's first national parks in 1951 and a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2017.
- It attracts millions of visitors a year for walking, lakes, mountains and literary heritage such as Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter.
- Honeypot sites such as Windermere and Keswick get very crowded.
- Problems: traffic congestion on narrow roads, footpath erosion, litter, and second homes pushing up house prices for local people.
- Management: repairing and stone-pitching footpaths, park-and-ride and bus services, and encouraging visits outside the peak season.
Sustainable tourism and fragile environments
- Sustainable tourism meets visitors' needs while protecting the environment and benefiting local people now and in the future.
- The Galápagos Islands (Ecuador) are fragile: rules include visitor fees, licensed guides, set trails and limits on numbers to protect unique wildlife.
- Ecotourism in countries such as Costa Rica uses small lodges, local guides and conservation fees.
- Tourists can help by staying longer, using local businesses, respecting wildlife and culture, and flying less.
