World Tourism Day is being observed today. This day is celebrated every year on September 27 to promote tourism all over the globe. The celebrations are also aimed at fostering awareness among the international community on the importance of tourism and its social, cultural, political, and economic
value.
The theme for this year's World Tourism Day is 'Tourism and Green Investments'. Tourism helps provide employment to millions of people to the extent that few countries are completely dependent on the tourism sector for financial stability.
