What is sightseeing?

Sightseeing is one of the most basic activities in tourism. For example, watching scenic spots, cultural relics, beautiful cities and their customs in foreign countries. Visitors can change their usual living environment, broaden their horizons, increase their knowledge, cultivate their temperament, be happy, appreciate the beauty of nature, appreciate the taste of modern city life, and meet the needs and purposes of shopping in different places. This basic mode of tourism will still occupy an important position in the future. In many countries, "sightseeing" is synonymous with sightseeing or traveling, and "tourists" are tourists. The so-called "tourism geography" in Japan is usually translated into "tourism geography".

Leisure vacation tourism is a kind of leisure way that takes leisure as the main purpose and content and relaxes the body and mind when going out for vacation. With the continuous development of China's economy, people's concept of tourism has also changed greatly. More and more people are tired of sightseeing and begin to fall in love with leisure, relaxation and entertainment-oriented leisure and holiday tourism.

Sightseeing refers to enjoying natural landscapes and cultural monuments, and appreciating folk customs, with the main purpose of increasing knowledge, broadening horizons and making people happy. Holiday tourism refers to a less mobile tourism consumption activity with leisure, fitness, rest and relaxation as the main purpose, and going to a specific destination. Compared with sightseeing, holiday tourism is a higher-level tourism form, which emphasizes a safe, quiet and beautiful environment, a colorful entertainment life, entertainment facilities to improve physical and mental health and high-quality services. I can't even see what traces the years have left on it.
