The three tourist destinations that I found most suitable are; the Scarborough Beach resort, the Lake District, and Edinburg as a historical town. The first coastal site is essential because it offers a wide array of activities as compared to other coastal attraction centers. The second area, the Lake District, offers beautiful scenery and a chance for seclusion. Finally, the third area, Edinburg, provides a clear history of Scotland using fun activities and historical buildings.

Local traditions

The Peasholm Park is famous for its rare trees that were thought to be extinct; the Dickson Golden elm species (The Scarborough News, 2020).

The coastal area also hosts the 2500-year-old Scarborough castle and the Rotunda Museum (Discover Yorkshire, 2020).

Lake District has a significant art history. Therefore, it hosts annual summer exhibitions for local artists (Rothay Garden, 2016).

The lake district also hosts an annual summer-long musical festival further to encourage artistic creativity (Rothay Garden, 2016).

The city contains peculiar but unique and exciting traditions. For instance, people spit on the heart of Midlothian outside St. Giles Cathedral as a show of distaste for the gruesome prosecutions that took place in the area centuries ago (Parliament House Hotel, 2017).

The Lake District attracts tourists by providing information on every destination in social media channels and pamphlets. Therefore, they increase people’s curiosity about the area. Also, artists are drawn to the area since many former artists rose to fame in the Lake District. Inbound and domestic visitors often revisit the town after their first visit as it has many beautiful sceneries. Over two-thirds of the visitors are domestic UK citizens who assert that the over 85% f the locals in the area are friendly and accommodating. Foreign tourists also state that the city has a wide range of outdoor activities (Visit Britain, 2016). Therefore, with the extensive choices of accommodation facilities, activities and sites, and friendly locals, Lake District provides high levels of satisfaction to domestic and foreign visitors.
