How does the World Expo promote tourism development? The role of the World Expo on the tourism industry

1. The World Expo provides great opportunities for the development of tourism. When a country hosts the World Expo, the most direct beneficiary is the tourism industry. The huge number of visitors to the 2010 Shanghai World Expo will undoubtedly have an immeasurable positive impact on Shanghai's tourism industry. The World Expo plays a positive role in bringing huge tourist attractions to the tourism industry, increasing tourism revenue, promoting the construction of tourism infrastructure and tourist attractions, enhancing the tourism image, and increasing employment opportunities.

2. The World Expo will stimulate tourism consumption, significantly increase tourism income, and drive income from related industries. For example, Shanghai is located at the mouth of the Yangtze River. The hosting of the World Expo will surely produce significant peripheral linkage effects, radiate to East China, and even drive the development of the national economy. The value of this aspect will be difficult to estimate.
