HISTORY OF TOURISM
Early Tourism - Travel and exploration are basic to human nature.
“Torah” - Hebrew word - Studying - Learning - Searching
Old Testament - “Noah with his Ark” must have been the first large-scale operator - his passengers were mostly animals.
Two Forms of Early Tourism: 1. Travel for business such as trading - The invention of money, writing - “wheel” by the Sumerians facilitated travel and exchange, of goods. 2. Religious travel - Pilgrimages to places of worship - Pilgrimages were made to fulfil a vow as in case of illness or of great danger or as penance for sins.
Tourism in the Medieval Period - travel declined. “Travail” - heavy labor, anguish and pain “Travel” was derived
After-the Decline of the Roman Empire in the 5th Century: - Roads were not maintained and they became unsafe. - Thieves inflicted harm on those who dared to travel. - No one during this time travelled for pleasure. - Crusaders and pilgrims were the only ones who travelled.
During the Renaissance and Elizabethan Eras: "Grand Tour" - “The rite of passage” of gentleman’s education - Travel to cultural centers of the continent which lasted for three years.
During the Industrial Revolution: - The Industrial Revolution brought about major changes in the scale and type of tourism development. - It brought about not only technological changes but also essential social changes that made travel desirable as a recreational activity.
