“What Is Travel?” Travel is a Chinese word, pronounced lü xing. It means going on a long journey, traveling elsewhere on business, or sightseeing. It means setting out to explore another place, which is different from tourism. “Elements of Travel” The difference between traveling and tourism is this: Travel means observing the scenery and things around you, covering ten thousand miles and reading ten thousand books. It generally refers to an individual setting out on a journey. Tourism means sightseeing, usually in a group, and for a relatively short period. Tourism is the activity of traveling for pleasure. It is a complex social phenomenon involving many areas of society, including politics, economics, culture, history, geography, and law. Tourism is also a form of recreation, and any trip to another place for pleasure can count. The World Tourism Organization defines travel as someone going at least 55 miles (88.5 kilometers) from home.
