Why are local governments keen on developing tourism?

At present, many local governments are keen on "small finance, big investment, small place and big tourism" and are ready to announce that they will invest tens of billions of yuan to develop tourism. Building roads every year, using the same road, repeated investment, repeated repayment, investment every year, and losses every year, which makes the financial debt billions, even billions, really unacceptable. What on earth are they doing this for? What is the root cause? Are these loans due? Is it all used up or in someone's pocket? Personally, traveling is like playing mahjong. The scenic spot is a table, tourists are losers, and travel service providers are winners. Compared with the whole society, it has not created value. If a region blindly develops tourism, it is like encouraging everyone to gamble. Today, when the development of real economy is strongly advocated, it is necessary to scientifically understand the development of tourism and invest limited funds in the development of producer services, residential services and urban services. Only such "32 1" industrial structure adjustment is scientific and sustainable! ! ! Of course, there is another important reason for local governments to develop tourism, that is, the short-term gambling behavior of party and government leaders, but what they bet on is not money, but career. In this gambling, the happiness and long-term interests of a region and hundreds of thousands or even millions of people are lost, and individuals and a few people win. Adhering to the belief of "investing hundreds of millions, working hard for a year or two, holding a celebration banquet and finding a good location", they regard the development of tourism as a "short-term, quick-acting" project for their promotion and wealth. As everyone knows, they have achieved "short-term success", while this side of the people has "paid debts on behalf of others." From a deeper perspective, this is also caused by the current employment mechanism in China. At present, the selection and employment of people in organizational departments presents the wrong tendency of "not looking at the essence, looking at the appearance, looking at the achievements and looking at the image".
