The future of tourism
Will there be more replicas like in Lascaux? There already are. Heritage theme
parks (mini-Disneylands!) are springing up everywhere. Many of the great cities
of Europe, such as Prague, Rome, and Warsaw, are finding that their historic
centres are fast becoming theme parks - Tourist ghettos, filled with clicking
cameras and whirring camcorders, abandoned by all local residents except for
the souvenir sellers.
Until recently, we all believed that travel broadened the mind, but now many
believe the exact opposite: Modern travel narrows the mind'.
