Positive impact of ecotourism

1. Eco-tourism can improve the quality of the tourism environment in tourist attractions, allowing people to enjoy and understand nature while also achieving the purpose of protecting nature, thereby achieving a harmonious coexistence between man and the environment.

2. Eco-tourism can directly bring economic benefits through ticket revenue, donations, etc. Eco-tourism can effectively improve the income level and quality of life of local residents and drive local economic development. That is, through tourism development, we raise funds for tourist areas, create employment opportunities for local residents, effectively develop the economy, and enable local residents to benefit economically and financially without reducing the quality of the ecological environment. According to the World Ecotourism Conference, ecotourism can bring an annual output value of at least US$20 billion to the world and has now become a trend in world tourism development.

3. Eco-tourism advocates environmental protection awareness and increases the attention of relevant groups to environmental protection. Eco-tourism allows tourists to travel in a good natural environment, take a vacation, or recuperate. At the same time, they can understand nature, understand ecology, and enrich scientific knowledge, thereby enhancing environmental awareness and ecological ethics, and more consciously caring for nature and protecting the environment.

4. Ecotourism can provide incentives for the protection of natural and semi-natural environments. As population growth and economic development put increasing pressure on natural areas, ecotourism effectively uses natural areas to provide conditions for habitat restoration and protection.
