Tourism
One day, traveling between countries was very hard. It took too much time (days, months and years) and it was too expensive, only few who could afford it. That’s why traveling was only for some main reasons, such as merchants, scientists and of course I won’t forget wars, because of the big number of travelers in such events.
Now, with the great luxury of 20th century civilization, travel is easy. With a few hours people can travel around the globe, exploring the far reaches of the earth. Getting to know the history of the peoples who passed from those lands and how their inhabitants continued to preserve their historical heritage. Tourism has become an accessible luxury from all sides. Tourism services have a special sector in every country. The aim of this sector is to upgrade and develop tourism services to make sure of the quality that tourists receive all around the country.
