tourism

Japanese: tourism
tourism

...When interpreted as tourism behavior, in the narrow sense, it means seeing and experiencing the scenery, customs, cultural artifacts, etc. of other countries or regions, and in the broad sense, it is almost synonymous with sightseeing travel and refers to travel in general for the purpose of pleasure. The English word for tourism is tourism, but strictly speaking, the concept of tourism is broader than sightseeing, and refers to all travel that temporarily leaves the sphere of daily life without the purpose of permanent residence or profit in the destination, and related events.
