什么是“云旅游”

簡而言之，“云旅游”促進(jìn)了旅游體驗，而實際上不必真正去任何地方旅行。

“云旅游”有許多不同的形式和規(guī)模，向我們展示了不同程度的技術(shù)能力。

在其最簡單的形式中，“云旅游”可能由旅游目的地的視頻組成。 “游客”觀看視頻，利用他們的聽覺和視覺感官“旅游”。

更復(fù)雜和高級的“云旅游”形式包括通過戴耳機或模擬器使“游客”身臨其境。它還可能涉及使用不同的道具，“游客”可能會產(chǎn)生其他的感受。

為什么現(xiàn)在“云旅游”很受歡迎

云旅游行業(yè)于2020年新冠肺炎期間真正開始蓬勃發(fā)展。世界各地的旅游愛好者都迫切希望有一種體驗，可以重拾他們被迫取消的假期或他們渴望的旅行。在這種情況下，“云旅游”可以很好地滿足這些旅游愛好者的需求。

“云旅游”的優(yōu)缺點

“云旅游”的一大優(yōu)點是它對環(huán)境的影響很小。旅游對環(huán)境造成很多負(fù)面影響，如果游客不實地旅行，這些負(fù)面影響會降低到十分之一?！霸坡糜巍碧峁┳杂珊挽`活性。你可以去任何你想去的地方，甚至不需要換掉你的睡衣?！坝慰汀笨筛鶕?jù)喜好和時間自行安排“云旅游”項目?！霸坡糜巍背杀靖?。在旅行中，“游客”只需要一臺電腦或其他一些特定的智能設(shè)備。事實上，許多“云旅游”活動是免費的。此外，實地旅游客觀上還受時間、空間、氣候、游客數(shù)量等因素的影響，旅游體驗質(zhì)量難以保證。

凡事都有兩面性，“云旅游”也是如此?！霸坡糜巍睙o法提供實地旅游所具有的經(jīng)濟(jì)優(yōu)勢。雖然“云旅游”的一個優(yōu)點是不需要花很多錢，但這也是一個缺點。實地旅游可以為旅游景點帶來大量資金。事實上，旅游業(yè)的經(jīng)濟(jì)效益是許多地區(qū)發(fā)展旅游業(yè)的主要原因。更重要的是，“云旅游”最明顯的缺點之一是有限的社交互動。對于某些人來說，社交可能正是他們想要在旅游中尋找的。

總而言之，如果你還沒有嘗試過這種新的旅行方式，你可以嘗試一下。
