Over the last few years, The World Tourism Organization became highly concerned about mass tourism in some countries and how it destroyed the nature and disturbed the ecosystem.
In some cities like Venice, tourism has such a negative impact that inhabitants manifested multiple times against the number of tourists.
Some actions have been taken in the past to reduce or to spread tourists over the year but with no great results.
Covid-19 as dreadful it is for the economics, it's actually beneficial to the tourism industry by reducing considerably number of tourists in the most famous sites.
The city of Lourdes, France, known to be the third pilgrimage town in the world, faced the Coronavirus crisis with the first ever e-pilgrimage.
The virtual event was a 15 hours marathon with online animations and was a huge success.
In Thailand, the closing of touristic sites allows the ecosystem to regenerate itself and to bring back wildlife to the sites.
The authorities witnessing such great results decided then to close parks and other sites each year for at least 2 to 4 months for conservation purposes.
Covid-19 crisis forced to adopt extraordinary measures that would never have been possible before the crisis.
Even though the tourism industry suffers from the crisis, it brings positive outcomes in the long run as The Conversation fairly points.
