The Importance That Tourism Maintains In Europe

The importance that tourism maintains in Europe

Introduction

In first terms, a global vision of what is committed to the tourism sector must be taken in order to encompass all the countries that make up what we call the European continent. In a traditional way and as we know the European continent belongs to an advanced economy with what we can affirm that it is one of the main and important markets for the broadcast of international tourism worldwide along with other continents such as America and Asia and Asia. European tourism also starts positively when using its currency, when we talk about the euro in tourist movements either individually

Developing

By business or leisure due to the great exclusivity and quality of the same. In addition to presenting a very important role and that is originated from the possible creation of many jobs for residents of a country, in addition to business and even fruit the potential of economies that compose it among others. On the other hand, most of the arrivals that occur in Europe are usually in a high percentage of tourists from it, and that may be due to faster, lower price and in an increase in comfort in terms of traveling than If we talk about other farther destinations.

After studies carried out over the years and according to the European Commission, this continent as a whole is classified as the most visited tourist destination in an excellent way. This was because it published in 2010 a reinforced statement before a theoretically and previously notifying scenario, a being of strategies for the sector, as stimulation were among them when competing in reference to the tourism of the continent and promoting the development and growth of innovation, sustainability, responsibility and high quality in the tourist field and thus differentiate ourselves from others.

One of the main keys to tourism activity that provides a very large competitive advantage and increases market share is a branch of this sector such as accessible tourism, since it is a benefit for all and the most prominent in Europe are France, United Kingdom and Germany. Therefore, we can jointly analyze the corresponding and updated data on tourism from different points of view. In the first place, and according to the data provided by the World Economic Fund based on the different factors and policies that it includes in a sustainable development of the trips that are made and the economic contribution of the tourist activity to development.

And own competitiveness that can be seen in each country. Therefore, it provides a ranking on these terms in which Spain positions in head, in second place and thirdly Germany, both countries also in our research goal. Second, according to the number of international tourist arrivals in 2017, they increased by 8% with a total of 52 million tourists more than in 2016, but this also originated an increase in the sector’s income. As a whole in the last three years reached approximately 9.7%, so we can see that every year it is increasing and therefore generates a positive evolution.

In addition, observing graph 2.1 On the ten tourist destinations with more arrivals from international tourists worldwide, with information collected from the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) compared to 2018, we noticed that the country that receives the most international tourists in the first place is France with approximately about about about 89 million, followed by Spain around 83 million. We can also see that most tourist destinations are part of the European continent so we can state that what is previously announced about the most important and most visited destinations worldwide is true.

Continuing with the millions of international tourists, but in this case only those who visit the European continent as a whole, and in turn dividing it into subregions and how we can observe are northern Europe, Western Europe, Central/Eastern Europe and Mouth We analyze the average annual growth approximately during the period from 2010 to 2018. We can address our gaze that stands out for its growth in these 8 years of study that is in southern/Mediterranean Europe with approximately 2 percentage points that Europe from the north and central/eastern that concentrate in 4.10% and 4.70% respectively. 

In the case of Western Europe it presents the lowest percentage but positively of all subregions with 3.30%. On the other hand, we will also study what is the evolution of income from international tourism divided as well as the previous one in the subregions of the European continent and in the same period of time. As we can analyze the income from international tourism in each of the subregions, it increases to the years positively until 2018 in all cases and approximately between 30 or 40 billion dollars. We can also contemplate that southern Europe.

And Mediterranean is the one that presents the greatest growth in the year of 2010 and in 2018 with 220.4 billion dollars with a variation of about 33 billion more than in Western Europe that represents second place in this evolution due to the economic recovery of some of their countries. After the representation of these, taking into account the concepts of arrivals by international tourists and the income from tourism that are generated in each part of Europe it can be concluded that in 2018, Europe was the most visited continent worldwide after continuous development both in its economy and in itself in the tourism sector.

conclusion

In the case of southern and Mediterranean Europe, the captain was in its results in the different concepts that have previously been analyzed by a higher percentage of all destinations that make it around 8% in both concepts because it is the main tourist destination traditionally. Western Europe. The destinations of Central and Eastern Europe grew in both with lower values ​​than the previous. North Europe its evolution also developed positively but without so much boom and in other subregions, since there was no more than 1% in both terms.
