The classes started well and this is the first week of the class. Everyone needs to choose their research topic. The research topic is the main part of this term. I thought about a topic which is exploring the tourism of India to different countries. We need to select a topic in which we are interested and can search for that topic every single piece of information like why, when, what, and how......???

My research topic is a fascinating and enjoyable project which will also help my dissertation. Consider what you are passionate about within your field of study.

I need to explore mainly two research questions about my research topic these are:

1) Is it good? It's Capability.

2) Is it Not good? It's worthwhile means its appropriateness.

After finalizing the research topic you need to start the research about the topic and some important research questions which are the questions about research aims to answer. After discussing with my tutors, I can now develop the research questions, aims, and objectives of my research topics.

1) Different barriers faced by tourists who come from India to the UK

2) Analyzing the specific place in the UK country where people love to visit and how they stay. how do they manage?

and is it affordable or not...???

soon I will be sorted with these questions answers.

tourism, the act and process of spending time away from home in pursuit of recreation, relaxation, and pleasure, while making use of the commercial provision of services. As such, tourism is a product of modern social arrangements, beginning in western Europe in the 17th century, although it has antecedents in Classical antiquity.

Tourism is distinguished from exploration in that tourists follow a "beaten path," benefit from established systems of provision, and, as befits pleasure-seekers, are generally insulated from difficulty, danger, and embarrassment. Tourism, however, overlaps with other activities, interests, and processes, including, for example, pilgrimage. This gives rise to shared categories, such as "business tourism," "sports tourism," and " medical tourism " (international travel undertaken for the purpose of receiving medical care).

The origins of tourism

By the early 21st century, international tourism had become one of the world's most important economic activities, and its impact was becoming increasingly apparent from the Arctic to Antarctica. The history of tourism is therefore of great interest and importance. That history begins long before the coinage of the word tourist at the end of the 18th century. In the Western tradition, organized travel with supporting infrastructure, sightseeing, and an emphasis on essential destinations and experiences can be found in ancient Greece and Rome, which can lay claim to the origins of both "heritage tourism" (aimed at the celebration and appreciation of historic sites of recognized cultural importance) and beach resorts. The Seven Wonders of the World became tourist sites for Greeks and Romans.

Pilgrimage offers similar antecedents, bringing Eastern civilizations into play. Its religious goals coexist with defined routes, commercial hospitality, and an admixture of curiosity, adventure, and enjoyment among the motives of the participants. Pilgrimage to the earliest Buddhist sites began more than 2,000 years ago, although it is hard to define a transition from the makeshift privations of small groups of monks to recognizably tourist practices. Pilgrimage to Mecca is of similar antiquity. The tourist status of the hajj is problematic given the number of casualties that-even in the 21st century-continued to be suffered on the journey through the desert. The thermal spa as a tourist destination-regardless of the pilgrimage associations with the site as a holy well or sacred spring-is not necessarily a European invention, despite deriving its English-language label from Spa, an early resort in what is now Belgium. The oldest Japanese onsen ( hot springs) were catering to bathers from at least the 6th century. Tourism has been a global phenomenon from its origins.

Modern tourism is an increasingly intensive, commercially organized, business-oriented set of activities whose roots can be found in the industrial and postindustrial West. The aristocratic grand tour of cultural sites in France, Germany, and especially Italy-including those associated with Classical Roman tourism-had its roots in the 16th century. It grew rapidly, however, expanding its geographical range to embrace Alpine scenery during the second half of the 18th century, in the intervals between European wars. (If truth is historically the first casualty of war, tourism is the second, although it may subsequently incorporate pilgrimages to graves and battlefield sites and even, by the late 20th century, to concentration camps.) As part of the grand tour's expansion, its exclusivity was undermined as the expanding commercial, professional, and industrial middle ranks joined the landowning and political classes in aspiring to gain access to this rite of passage for their sons. By the early 19th century, European journeys for health, leisure, and culture became common practice among the middle classes, and paths to the acquisition of cultural capital (that array of knowledge, experience, and polish that was necessary to mix in polite society) were smoothed by guidebooks, primers, the development of art and souvenir markets, and carefully calibrated transport and accommodation systems.

Technology and the democratization of international tourism

Transport innovation was an essential enabler of tourism's spread and democratization and its ultimate globalization. Beginning in the mid-19th century, the steamship and the railway brought greater comfort and speed and cheaper travel, in part because fewer overnight and intermediate stops were needed. Above all else, these innovations allowed for reliable time-tabling, essential for those who were tied to the discipline of the calendar if not the clock. The gaps in accessibility to these transport systems were steadily closing in the later 19th century, while the empire of steam was becoming global. Railways promoted domestic as well as international tourism, including short visits to the coast, city, and countryside which might last less than a day but fell clearly into the "tourism" category. Rail travel also made grand tour destinations more widely accessible, reinforcing existing tourism flows while contributing to tensions and clashes between classes and cultures among the tourists. By the late 19th century, steam navigation and railways were opening tourist destinations from Lapland to New Zealand, and the latter opened the first dedicated national tourist office in 1901.

After World War II, governments became interested in tourism as an invisible import and as a tool of diplomacy, but prior to this time international travel agencies took the lead in easing the complexities of tourist journeys. The most famous of these agencies was Britain's Thomas Cook and Son organization, whose operations spread from Europe and the Middle East across the globe in the late 19th century. The role played by other firms (including the British tour organizers Frame's and Henry Gaze and Sons) has been less visible to 21st-century observers, not least because these agencies did not preserve their records, but they were equally important. Shipping lines also promoted international tourism from the late 19th century onward. From the Norwegian fjords to the Caribbean, the pleasure cruise was already becoming a distinctive tourist experience before World War I, and transatlantic companies competed for middle-class tourism during the 1920s and '30s. Between the World Wars, affluent Americans journeyed by air and sea to a variety of destinations in the Caribbean and Latin America.

Tourism became even bigger business internationally in the latter half of the 20th century as air travel was progressively deregulated and decoupled from "flag carriers" (national airlines). The airborne package tour to sunny coastal destinations became the basis of an enormous annual migration from northern Europe to the Mediterranean before extending to a growing variety of long-haul destinations, including Asian markets in the Pacific, and eventually bringing postcommunist Russians and eastern Europeans to the Mediterranean. Similar traffic flows expanded from the United States to Mexico and the Caribbean. In each case these developments built on older rail-, road-, and sea-travel patterns. The earliest package tours to the Mediterranean were by motor coach (bus) during the 1930s and postwar years. It was not until the late 1970s that Mediterranean sun and sea vacations became popular among working-class families in northern Europe; the label "mass tourism," which is often applied to this phenomenon, is misleading. Such holidays were experienced in a variety of ways because tourists had choices, and the destination resorts varied widely in history, culture, architecture, and visitor mix. From the 1990s the growth of flexible international travel through the rise of budget airlines, notably easyJet and Ryanair in Europe, opened a new mix of destinations. Some of these were former Soviet-bloc locales such as Prague and Riga, which appealed to weekend and short-break European tourists who constructed their own itineraries in negotiation with local service providers, mediated through the airlines' special deals. In international tourism, globalization has not been a one-way process; it has entailed negotiation between hosts and guests.

Well, days passed by, and our classes started. Now we need to upload or post everything we did per week. first, we need to make a summary of the whole we and then post it on the Padlet, which was checked by the tutor per week. In the starting, I have no idea about the research aims, objectives, and research questions. Then I took help from one of my tutors for these all and I started my research project which is Exploring the tourism of India to the UK in different fields.

The value of tourism and hospitality services in both developed and developing countries attests

to World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC) which is a body for travel and tourism connected

manners and description for over 230 million or 8.7% of jobs worldwide (WTTC, 2006) For my project:

1) Research Questions:

What is the impact on the tourists who prefer the UK more as a tour place? Which are the places they roam more and why? What are the good tourist places and why? Which one is more affordable for tour groups from India???

2) Research Aim:

The aim of the research is that address any difficulties faced by tourists or it is a good place for them. Is there anything that proves that the UK is a good tourist place?

3) Research Objectives:

There are many objectives through which we can define the tourism of the UK like surveys, seminars, library searches, and Google Scholar. We can use these objectives and can do good research on your topic.

Different objectives give us a lot of information about our research that's why objectives are the most important for the research.
