Reading A Brief History of Tourism The tourism is 2,000 years old. It started when rich people of ancient Rome didn´t want to stay in the city during hot summers. They took trips to the countryside and the coast. People that lived in the countryside or the coast worked for the Roman ‘tourists‘, they cooked for them or built new houses for them. When Roman Empire ended, Roman tourism stopped. But it was in the eighteenth century when tourism became popular. Rich people in Europe started to travel because of health and culture. They visited spas and seaside towns and they enjoyed fresh air. Rich English people liked to travel to Italy. They studied Italian paintings, sculpture, and architecture. They wanted to be cultural. In the twentieth century a lot of Europeans got richer and wanted to travel. Soon there were hotels almost everywhere. In the 1960s, tourists started to travel by plane because it was cheap, fast, and comfortable. People discovered countries like Spain and France. Today Spain, Italy, and France are still popular with tourists. USA and exotic destinations attract a lot of people, too. In these countries, travelers can find fashionable resorts, comfortable hotels, and exciting theme parks. No wonder tourists spend a lot of money.
