Abstract
International tourism growing and is the foremost vehicle for cultural exchange, providing a personal experience, not only of that which past cultural heritage, but also contemporary life and society of others. It is a positive force for natural and cultural conservation. Tourism can capture the economic characteristics of heritage and harness these for conservation by generating funding, educating the community and influencing policy. It is a tool for economy to grow and can be an important factor in development, if managed successfully. Many of the world countries are multi-religious and multi-cultural, such as India, China, Indonesia and Africa and so on. Even though the cultural tourism is a boon to these countries, they are facing several challenges and posing significant risks to the cultural heritage, architectural sites and the socio cultural fabric of the society in their respective countries. The reaction between the tourism and conservation is dynamic and many countries where the respect for the indigenous traditions is lacking are leading to conflicts and severe challenges. In many places the cultural tourism is becoming threat to cultural heritage such as being experienced by the Mexico, Guatemala and other Native American traditional countries in Americas. The challenge is posed due to inadequate integration of cultural heritage protection and management laws and practices into social, economic, political, legislative, and cultural and tourism development policies at national and regional level can diminish the protection and conservation of cultural heritage over time. The local Government are victims and lured towards the possible economic development due tourism but at what cost to the local people especially the indigenous people. The dilemma is economic development and heritage losses, unless proper regulations are implemented we may lose many of the greatest cultural heritages down the road and may be cultural tourism may be blamed for the same. This paper will discuss various aspects of cultural tourism, risk involved, possible conflicts and challenges and how some of the world community is addressing these challenges.
