Top 10 Countries that are Dependent on Tourism
Tourism provides tourists, an opportunity to relax, perform official duties or other various activities. But a more significant role it plays for the host country. Tourism has proved to be a big boon for many countries’ economies. It is paramount because people visiting the area spend their money which will be poured into the business thus improving their economy. It is also important on a cultural level as the country can display their ancestry and rituals. Though for many countries it enhances their economy but for some others it has become a predominant industry which leads to their absolute dependence over tourism.
