As a result of the ongoing growth in the tourism industry, many destinations around the world are undergoing transformations. New destinations are being -discovered- in regions previously ignored, as people search for regions that are yet unspoiled by the ravages of mass tourism.

These changes have the most effect on the destination community - the location where tourists spend their time and money, and influence development or degradation of the local...
