Loss of authenticity in tourist destinations
Loss of authenticity in tourist destinations: Some destinations can become overly commercialized and lose their authenticity by becoming tourist traps, which can lead to a loss of charm and interest for tourists, and locals may feel like they live in a theme park. Dependence on the tourism industry: Destinations can become too dependent on tourism, and if the tourism industry declines, it can have a serious economic impact on the community.
