โHalina't tayo'y maglakbay, bumisita, at magsiyasat!"
World Tourism Day is celebrated every year on September 27 to highlight the importance of tourism in promoting culture, unity, and development. It was established by the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) in hopes to raise awareness in how tourism can help foster societies and economies around the world.
When we hear the term "tourism," we fail to recognize its significant value and simply settle to what we first thought of as just travel and leisure. Unbeknownst to many, tourism offers notable opportunities for locals, creating jobs, supporting their businesses, and preserving traditions which, all in all, continues to promote their communities including the indigenous, delving into the deep, unique and diverse practices within countless cultures. Every trip we take allows us to explore new customs, taste distinct cuisines, and appreciate the beauty of nature, history, and ancestry.
This yearโs theme celebrates and reminds us to practice sustainable tourism which heavily emphasizes on securing the environment of tourist landmarks, stressing the importance of traveling responsibly, whilst ensuring that we maintain our respect and appreciation for such communities. By doing so, we ensure that future generations will continue to enjoy the wonders of the world.
World Tourism Day is a call for everyone to realize that tourism is not just an activity that simply revolves around ease and relaxation, but can become a powerful tool for growth, learning, and unity across nations.
