Tourist Attractions
Attraction is the power or act of attracting, or a desirable or pleasant quality or
thing (The New Lexicon, 1991, p. 61).Without tourist attractions there would be no
tourism (Gunn, 1972) and without tourism there would be no tourist attractions. Although
a tautology, such an argument still points to the fundamental importance of tourist
attractions and the attractiveness of places to tourism. In addition, physical or cultural
features at a particular place that tourists’ perceive as capable of meeting one or more of
their specific leisure-related needs as follows; natural attractions, man-made attractions
and cultural attractions.
