What is Phenomenon

Tourism is one of the fastest-growing industries in the world. Currently, it provides 10% of the world's income and employs one-tenth of the total workforce. World Tourism Organisation (WTO) estimates that by 2020 1.6 billion people will travel around the globe and an estimated income of $1.5 billion will be generated from these activities. With all these financial outcomes, tourism can provide great opportunities for the local economies. The sacred geography of the Tibetan region and the sacred Mount Kailas combines the origins of the world's four religions. For several centuries Tibet was closed to foreign visitors and tourists. This is explained not only by the complex geographical location. Tibet's isolation was largely driven by both Tibetan rulers and Chinese policy.
