Why is mass tourism unsustainable?

The reason why this kind of tourism is unsustainable is that it is a consumption-oriented tourism model with the main purpose of meeting the needs of tourists.

1. The excessive commercialization of mass tourism leads to the destruction of local culture and ecological environment: in order to meet the needs of tourists, many tourist destinations are overexploited, resulting in the destruction of local culture and ecological environment.

2. Overcrowding and over-exploitation of mass tourism also lead to the exhaustion of tourism resources: many famous tourist attractions are overcrowded during holidays and tourist seasons, which affects the experience of tourists and accelerates the overuse and destruction of tourism resources.

3. The rapid development of mass tourism has led to the homogenization of tourism services: the services and products of many tourist destinations are similar, lacking in characteristics and innovation. This not only affects the tourist experience, but also hinders the long-term development of local tourism.
