Abstract


Tourism is the field which has capability to transform entire society and bring foreign wealth through the easiest way. One of the fastest growing industry, great demand, and relaxed environment makes it one of the most demanding industries. The contribution of tourism to national or local economy or, more generally, to development varies according to a variety of factors. As a general rule, it is likely that a greater dependence will be placed on tourism in less developed countries than in industrialized countries. In many smaller countries where resources are limited economic development depends upon tourism activities. Development itself has its various notion described time to time. Mostly economic and social impacts have been given greater emphasis when we talk about development of a society. Tourism has an impact on this development process.
