Eco-tourism and cultural preservation focus on promoting responsible travel while protecting the environment and safeguarding local traditions and heritage. Eco-tourism is a form of tourism that emphasizes visiting natural areas in a way that conserves the environment, supports local communities, and creates awareness about nature conservation. It encourages sustainable practices such as minimizing waste, conserving wildlife, and respecting natural ecosystems. Eco-tourism also provides economic benefits to local people by creating jobs and supporting small businesses without harming the environment.
Cultural preservation involves protecting and maintaining the traditions, languages, arts, customs, and historical sites of communities. Many cultures face the risk of disappearing due to modernization and globalization. By preserving cultural heritage, societies maintain their identity and pass valuable traditions to future generations. Tourism, when managed responsibly, can help preserve culture by promoting local crafts, festivals, and traditional lifestyles.
