Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lakes are an essential element of some of the world's most popular tourism destinations. However, increased pressure from visitors and the tourism industry as well as from other, sometimes competing, land and water uses has made the sustainable development of lakes increasingly problematic. This book represents the first attempt to bring together some of the key elements of lake tourism within a single volume in order to present the urgent need for an integrated approach to lacustrine tourism systems management.The book presents comprehensive overviews of lake tourism including branding and marketing, visitor management and planning, historical and cultural dimensions, and environmental quality. The volume is international in scope with cases from Europe, North America and Oceania. The book concludes by noting that tourism needs to be established as a complimentary land and water use at a time when lakes and their watersheds are facing challenges in the form of climate and environmental change, increasing numbers of visitors as well as an overall increase in competing demands for water.

Book excerpt: Tourism is acclaimed to be one of the world’s biggest revenue generating industries accounting for billions of dollars and thousands of jobs. Technological innovations, urbanization, improvement in living standard, introduction of fuel efficient cars made journeys relatively easier. All these factors have generated a vibrant tourism activity and brought a bloom in domestic tourism. The tourism sector is having multiplier effect on the economy and its contribution to the GDP is one of the highest and its ability to generate employment is much more than any other sector. It is the largest single employer and industry in several island nations. The World Travel & Tourism Council calculated that tourism generated at an average annual rate of 7.9% from 2013 to 2023. This gives India the third rank among countries with the fastest growing tourism industries over the next decade. India's rich history and its cultural and geographical diversity make its international tourism appeal large and diverse. It presents heritage and cultural tourism along with medical, business, educational and sports tourism. Water is an attractive element and plays an important role in recreation and holidays. Rivers, Lakes, Waterfalls have an aesthetic significance for attracting tourists. Today, there are a number of established lake tourism destinations all over the world. Water tourism assumes significance in the national economies of several European and Asian countries. There are several water based tourism destinations in the world which are very popular and drawing large number of both domestic and international tourists across the world. In India such as Rivers, Tanks, Lakes and Waterfalls etc., All these water bodies are sources of life for flora and fauna. All the important cities in India have been developed on the banks of the Rivers and Lakes from Ancient times. These water bodies provided irrigation facilities and became great centers of civilizations. Those centers are also popular as pilgrimage canters, since ancient times and are all also emerging as tourism destinations in modern times. The author has tried to make harmonious blend of theory and practice, which hopefully will make the book more useful to the students, teachers and practicing tourism professionals. The author would appreciate constructive comments and suggestions from the students, teachers, practicing tour planners and executives in the improvements of this book.

Book excerpt: Tourism has become a major international industry, with many countries all over the world relying on the income it produces. Because it is a major source of finances and employment, government and other institutions activitely promote tourism, regardless of the impact on the environment, ecology and social structure of the region. The demands of tourism can contribute to the destruction of the natural and cultural environment upon which it depends. The natural and cultural landscape's capacity to accommodate the local and worldwide effects of tourism, the typology thereof and its implications for the economy and society constitute very important study objectives. The development of tourism can result in the degradation of natural landscapes that paradoxically attract tourists to such areas. Featured topics include: Tourism Strategies; Tourism as a Tool of Development; Tourism Impact; Tourism and Protected Areas; Rural Tourism; Community Involvement; IT and Tourism; Climate Change and Tourism; Environmental Issues; Art, Architecture and Culture; Modelling; Emergent Strategies for Tourism Development; Landscape and Tourism; Tourism and Urban Planning.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of introducing this handbook derives from the realization that tourism is often the object of a single-issue analysis, lacking an organic vision. The fact that this complex phenomenon manifests itself in space meant in concrete terms and presents economic-territorial implications of varied nature privileges those who inquire it mainly from a territorial point of view, like economic geographers. The approach followed, while enhancing the three most important 'moments' in which tourism occurs, i.e. the outgoing, the movement and the incoming, is applicable both on a regional, or even local level, and on a general scale, thus allowing to make those abstractions than many scholars believe to be fundamental to the definition of their discipline as a real science.
