Intro:
 A lot of places in the world rely on tourism as a
main source of income. Unfortunately, tourism can
also be a source of problems if it is not well-
managed.

It’s clear that in some countries tourism has become the main source of income.
Moreover, many individuals argue that it’s the best way of developing the economy
of a country; however, very few of these people aware of the drawbacks of tourism.
Because, if it’s not managed properly, tourism may cause a lot of problems to a
country. I tend to believe that tourism should not be the main focus in economy, and
in this essay I will address the benefits and drawbacks of tourism.
