Solution 1

Tourism is one of the fastest-growing service industries in Brazil. Tourism rates have been rising steeply in Brazil since the 2000s. There was a setback in the tourism industry between 2006 and 2008, but the economy has been back on track since then. Today, Brazil is one of the most visited countries in South America.

  1. Brazil’s cultural integrity and natural beauty are not the only factors that draw tourists. Brazil is also a very popular business destination. Many MNCs have their headquarters in Brazil.
  2. The Amazon River basin, the impenetrable forests, widespread beaches and bays along the coast, attractive islands, and the innumerable species of flora and fauna make Brazil a popular tourist destination.
  3. Many places are tagged by UNESCO as World Heritage Sites. Besides the capital city, Brasilia, cities like Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo also attract large tourist traffic.
  4. Because of the country's abundant natural resources, ecotourism is also being promoted with the participation of local people.
  5. Most of the visitors are from Argentina, the United States and Italy. To promote tourism, tourist VISA requirements have been renounced for many countries, including Greece, Italy, Hong Kong, Poland, Turkey and many others. Thus, tourism is a large developing industry in Brazil.
