It is that sectorfor tourists that provide them interest to visit that specific location, develops interest of thatdestination when they plan out their trip. When you are on sightseeing the whole sole purpose ofthe visit is its attraction. Attraction for any destination should be permanent rather thantemporary like any film performances as permanent attraction will tend to attract visitors byallowing them to have access for pleasure and entertainment, providing education and interest forthe location and it may include some places for worship also (Dewhurst and Thwaites, 2014).Any destination should be open for all rather than confined and restricted to some people or priorbookings for that specific location. It should be able enough to attract tourists as well as localpeople of that place. The attraction management should be under single authority rather thandistributed into different department s as if it would be a single entity than only it would beanswerable to questions o employment opportunities and revenue generated from tourismindustry. 3
