Foreign tourists must be charged higher fees than local people to visit cultural places and historical sites. Do you agree or disagree with this statement? Give your own opinion including relevant examples. It This has been a common experience for most people when they have traveled abroad and have attempted to visit an attractive place, where they had to pay more than residents. In contrast, the importance of local people's participation in going sightseeing gives some logical reasons to ask for cheaper fees for them. According to some researches, the number of local people who visit museums or historical places of their country is are meaningfully lower than that of their overseas counterparts. The reasons of this behavior are not completely known, however., some experts in the tourism industry have suggested a discriminatory payment method for motivating natives. They believe that making the difference between foreign and local visitors in entrance fees makes local people feel a warmer welcome and tells them who the homeowner isare. Now after several decades, examinations of this policy manifest a tremendous increaseing in the number of local visitors, a trend which which this trend has a significant impact on raising public awareness in a community. Another factor which leads governments to try to earn more money from foreigners is that these tourists' attitude to visit historical sites or museums just once and usually the first visit is the last one. Frankly, most historical places in the world are not so attractive which causes ordinary people to want to see them repeatedly and therefore with decreasing entrance fees to the level of locals, the income will fall and governments will have to dedicate extra money for the maintenance and upkeep. Moreover, since people from other countries do not pay tax to local governments regularly, this extra payment can be interpreted as a moral policy.In conclusion, although from the perspective of international holidaymakers, it is not reasonable that which they must pay more than many of the people around them, motivating locals to trace their history and culture outweighs satisfying overseas tourists who pay once and forget the little extra expense soon.
