Tetrahedron Model of Tourism
The Tetrahedron Model of Tourism illustrates that tourism is a balanced system involving four interconnected elements: the destination (place), the tourists (visitors), the tourism service providers (businesses and organizations), and the local community (residents). Each corner of the tetrahedron represents one element, and their interactions shape the quality, sustainability, and overall experience of tourism. A harmonious balance ensures positive economic impacts, cultural preservation, environmental protection, and community well-being, emphasizing that successful tourism depends on managing all four aspects collectively.
