Archaeological tourism is broadly described as visitor visits and events that take place at well- known sites. Historical landmarks, monuments, and discovery sites, for instance, and engage in the relationship that their physically engenders. Following the traditional description of archaeological heritage as tangible, the idea emphasizes the archaeological site as a crucial component of archaeological tourism. Archaeological tourism, also known as archaeotourism, is a subset of cultural tourism that defines archaeotourism as a type of tourism in which archaeological assets become attractions and/or when the primary motivation for travel is a visit to archaeological regions. Among many other tourist attractions, archaeological sites and museums are frequently included as an important part of the tourism adventure, although they are not the primary reason for travelling.
