Excess visiting of tourists to landscapes and historical places can degrade them and ruin them.
Signpost:After discussing the economic impact and the environmental impact of tourism, I will be focusing on the final impact which is the cultural impact.
III- Tourism’s cultural impacts, similar to economical and environmental impacts, can be divided in to positive and negative
