- NEGATIVE IMPACTS
- Economic
- Tourism relies on basic infrastructure,
such as roads, visitor centers and hotels. The cost of this usually falls
on the government, so it has to come out of tax revenues. Jobs
created by tourism are often seasonal and poorly paid, yet tourism
can push up local property prices and the cost of goods and services.
Money generated by tourism does not always benefit the local
community, as some of it leaks out to huge international companies,
such as hotel chains. Destinations dependent on tourism can be
adversely affected by events such as terrorism, natural disasters and
economic recession.
