What kind of person is a tourist?

Explanation of the term "tourist": refers to an individual who leaves his or her place of permanent residence for a period of less than one year to engage in sightseeing, vacation, family visits, friends or other forms of tourism activities.

Tourists refer to tourists who come to a country to stay temporarily for at least 24 hours. The first purpose of tourism is to kill leisure time (such as engaging in entertainment, vacation, religious and sports activities, etc.) and for health and research purposes; the second purpose is for industrial and commercial business, family visits, affairs and meetings, etc. Tourists who come to a country to stay temporarily for less than 24 hours (including those traveling by sea on cruise ships) are tourists.

Concept introduction:

Writing "Tourist" in English. It means a person who travels out of curiosity and for pleasure. But when counting the number of tourists, a difficult problem arises: Who counts as a tourist? Who are not tourists? For example, if a person leaves his place of residence for sightseeing in a different place and stays for more than 24 hours, he is considered a tourist, which seems to be beyond reproach.

But the other person left his workplace or home, spent a few hours in the city or countryside where he lived, and returned to his residence that night. Does this situation count as a tourist? In our opinion, he is a tourist, but when the number of tourists is counted internationally, he is not recognized. Therefore, there is a standard for how to classify tourists and non-tourists.
