Abstract

The goal of this paper is to examine the tourist industry's progress in light of recent developments such as increasing competition and shifting customer priorities. The purpose of is to examine nontraditional types of tourism with an eye on their significance to long-term viability. In order to provide the deepest possible experience, the tourism industry combines both concrete and intangible goods and services. Time has brought forth many new types of tourism, apart from the traditional religious kind. Over the previous 20 years, the number of visitors has doubled, and explosive expansion is forecast for all markets. Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people's social inclusion and the tourist industry are the main areas of this research. It is helpful to see the location as a whole in order to analyse the effects of tourism there.
